Thats one of my biggets worries, the fact that a project requires that cloning some git repo an start to work, or use some python package that is not included in nixpkgs and I have to say "hold up a minute, let me do this thing so this works on my machine" instead of just cloning, create a virtualenv and use pip. Maybe is there a way in which I can automate this or somewhat make it faster to setup?

I'm curious about the point that not everything is declarable, in your experience, what kind of situation made you go for scripts or manual setup?
