+We're doing this in .NET, so we need the .NET SDK. To do that, we're going to delcare a development environment in the flake config.
+
+```
+  inputs.flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";
+
+  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, flake-utils }:
+    flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system:
+      let pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};
+      in rec {
+        devShell = pkgs.mkShell {
+          packages = [ pkgs.dotnet-sdk ];
+        };
+      }
+    );
+```
+
+Declaring `inputs.flake-utils` adds the `flake-utils` package as a dependency, which just gives us Nix helper functions. What's important here is that the `packages.x86_64-linux.hello` above has been abstracted away behind the `eachDefaultSystem` function: now we define our outputs with the `system` input as context, and flake-utils will define our outputs for each default system.
+
+Basically, stripping the boilerplate, we're just doing this:
+
+```
+rec {
+  devShell = pkgs.mkShell {
+    packages = [ pkgs.dotnet-sdk ];
+  };
+}
+```
+
+`pkgs.mkShell` is the derivation builder that creates shell environments. It takes `packages` as a list of input packages that will be made available in the shell environment it creates. We add `dotnet-sdk` to this, commit the changes to git, and enter our new shell with `nix develop`:
+
+```
+$ which dotnet
+/nix/store/87s452c8wj2zmy21q8q394f6rzf5y1br-dotnet-sdk-6.0.100/bin/dotnet
