#   jolt-native libvidya and libjoltmoq, in Rust (gitlab:nandithebull/jolt-native)
#   frq         this tree, with its deps resolved to store paths
# Jolt resolves deps.edn by running git at startup, which a build sandbox has
# no network for — so every dep is fetched by Nix instead and handed back as
# a :local/root through -Sdeps.

Name the libcosmic recipe for its backend: `just cosmic run`   1021            # Same reason `just cosmic run` reaches for it: Flutter paints
          # through GL, and off NixOS the driver that can do that is the
          # host's, not the store's. The recipe reads this exactly as
          # `cosmic` does.

Seed the ClojureDart caches out of the flake   1027            # The `flutter` shell's, deliberately the same one and for the

          # both builds is one compile over one deps.edn, so a second set of
          # caches would be a second answer to what it resolved against.
          # This recipe reads the variable directly — it is inside this
          # shell before it does any of the work — where `just apk` reaches
          # for the flake output itself.

          # outside the shell re-enters and lands back on the same recipe —
          # no flag to forget, and no second code path for someone who runs
          # `nix develop .#flutter-desktop --command just flutter-desktop`
          # by hand.
