## What does this page contain?
|
|
|
|
This article builds on and clarifies values we have stated elsewhere. In particular, we look into the values on our website and the "solidification" stage of the roadmap (stage 3).
|
|
|
|
We've written this page because the roadmap is a broad-strokes list. While it contains strands of a vision and a minimum viable product description, it doesn't clarify these fully.
|

|
## What's our vision?
|
|
|
|
We want to create an alternative to nixpkgs which, when combined with alternative evaluators such as [Lix](https://lix.systems), will allow you to fully replace any dependencies on [NixOS](https://github.com/NixOS). This alternative should allow our contributors to be safe from discrimination or harassment. We should be welcoming to new members by providing solid documentation and a friendly and helpful community. Overall, we should foster a community that is kind to members, contributors and users. We should also run it in a way which ensures people's ideas are listened to and understood.

|
## What does a "minimum viable product" look like?
|
|
|
|
Our minimum viable product would be a system running Aux on bare metal. The system should be able to power on and launch to a desktop environment, such as KDE or Gnome. This system must not depend on nixpkgs.
