This tracking issue is to keep an overview of guides for most common use cases.

Guides should complement the tutorials, and should be quite short. They can even duplicate important topics to have a condensed form for quick lookup. Related: #910

A good example is the guide on sharing dependencies with shell.nix. It starts with a very small sample to show the pattern (which requires some proficiency with the Nix language to grasp quickly), and expands on the details below the fold.

Would the following topics make sense as well here?

@malteneuss absolutely!

I currently have the distributed build scenario at the top of my mind, recently updated the Nix manual on the topic, and would gladly review contributions.

Updating the cross compilation article with something that actually works would also be great.
