Nixery — Ad-Hoc Container Images

Nixery is a Docker-compatible container registry that is capable of transparently building and serving container images using Nix. Images are built on-demand based on the image name.

For example:

docker pull http://nixery.dev/shell/git/htop

The command above will give you an image with an interactive Shell, that also has git and htop installed. Keep adding more path segments to the URL, to have more packages pre-installed.
