I am on a similar journey
I built https://github.com/mikadosoftware/workstation (hey nearly 500 stars!) as the idea of defining a reproducible laptop build.
I don't think docker is the right level - so my next project when i have free time (!) is to do a box build that then might compile to docker
I think there is a sensible point of being able to define via nix both developer workstations and servers
Except it's Docker, and like virtually all Dockerfiles, it immediately runs "apt-get update", tossing reproducibility out the window.
yes, hence the (planned) move to flake.nix and then compile to docker.
Music to my ears! God speed, good luck!
