I might regret asking this but -- is there a guide out there to nix for human beings?

I like the idea of nix in theory but every time I look at any nix documentation or configuration files my eyes glaze over after about 12 seconds and I give up.

(really what's happening is that I’m using a Mac right now, I miss Linux package managers, I'm mad at homebrew, I'm somewhat hopeful that nix can help me manage my packages more sanely, but I'm unwilling to spend a million hours learning nix)
