+## Returning future proof JSON
+
+The schema of JSON output should allow for backwards compatible extension. This section explains how to achieve this.
+
+Two definitions are helpful here, because while JSON only defines one "key-value"
+object type, we use it to cover two use cases:
+
+ - **dictionary**: a map from names to value that all have the same type. In
+   C++ this would be a `std::map` with string keys.
+ - **record**: a fixed set of attributes each with their own type. In C++, this
+   would be represented by a `struct`.
+
+It is best not to mix these use cases, as that may lead to incompatibilities when the schema changes. For example, adding a record field to a dictionary breaks consumers that assume all JSON object fields to have the same meaning and type.
+
+This leads to the following guidelines:
+
+ - The top-level (root) value must be a record.
+
+   Otherwise, one can not change the structure of a command's output.
+
+ - The value of a dictionary item must be a record.
+
+   Otherwise, the item type can not be extended.
+
+ - List items should be records.
+
+   Otherwise, one can not change the structure of the list items.
+
+   If the order of the items does not matter, and each item has a unique key that is a string, consider representing the list as a dictionary instead. If the order of the items needs to be preserved, return a list of records.
+
+ - Streaming JSON should return records.
+
+   An example of a streaming JSON format is [JSON lines](https://jsonlines.org/), where each line represents a JSON value. These JSON values can be considered top-level values or list items, and they must be records.
+
+### Examples
+
+
+This is bad, because all keys must be assumed to be store implementations:
+
+```json
+{
+  "local": { ... },
+  "remote": { ... },
+  "http": { ... }
+}
+```
+
+This is good, because the it is extensible at the root, and is somewhat self-documenting:
+
+```json
+{
+  "storeTypes": { "local": { ... }, ... },
+  "pluginSupport": true
+}
+```
+
+While the dictionary of store types seems like a very complete response at first, a use case may arise that warrants returning additional information.
+For example, the presence of plugin support may be crucial information for a client to proceed when their desired store type is missing.
+
+
+
+The following representation is bad because it is not extensible:
+
+```json
+{ "outputs": [ "out" "bin" ] }
+```
+
+However, simply converting everything to records is not enough, because the order of outputs must be preserved:
+
+```json
+{ "outputs": { "bin": {}, "out": {} } }
+```
+
+The first item is the default output. Deriving this information from the outputs ordering is not great, but this is how Nix currently happens to work.
+While it is possible for a JSON parser to preserve the order of fields, we can not rely on this capability to be present in all JSON libraries.
+
+This representation is extensible and preserves the ordering:
+
+```json
+{ "outputs": [ { "outputName": "out" }, { "outputName": "bin" } ] }
+```

+on, you need to have some way for your system Nix to build code for that
+platform. Common solutions include [remote builders] and [binfmt emulation]
+(only supported on NixOS).
+
+[remote builders]: ../advanced-topics/distributed-builds.md
+[binfmt emulation]: https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/options.html#opt-boot.binfmt.emulatedSystems
+
+These solutions let Nix perform builds as if you're on the native platform, so
+executing the build is as simple as
 
 ```console
-$ nix develop
+$ nix build .#packages.aarch64-linux.default
 ```
 
+for flake-enabled Nix, or
+
+```console
+$ nix-build -A packages.aarch64-linux.default
+```
+
+for classic Nix.
+
+You can use any of the other supported platforms in place of `aarch64-linux`.
+
+Cross-compiled builds are available for ARMv6 and ARMv7, and Nix on unsupported platforms can be bootstrapped by adding more `crossSystems` in `flake.nix`.
+
+## Compilation environments
+
+Nix can be compiled using multiple environments:
+
+- `stdenv`: default;
+- `gccStdenv`: force the use of `gcc` compiler;
+- `clangStdenv`: force the use of `clang` compiler;
+- `ccacheStdenv`: enable [ccache], a compiler cache to speed up compilation.
+
+To build with one of those environments, you can use
+
+```console
+$ nix build .#nix-ccacheStdenv
+```
+
+for flake-enabled Nix, or
+
+```console
+$ nix-build -A nix-ccacheStdenv
+```
+
+for classic Nix.
+
+You can use any of the other supported environments in place of `nix-ccacheStdenv`.
+
+## Editor integration
+
+The `clangd` LSP server is installed by default on the `clang`-based `devShell`s.
+See [supported compilation environments](#compilation-environments) and instructions how to set up a shell [with flakes](#nix-with-flakes) or in [classic Nix](#classic-nix).
+
+To use the LSP with your editor, you first need to [set up `clangd`](https://clangd.llvm.org/installation#project-setup) by running:
+
+```console
+make clean && bear -- make -j$NIX_BUILD_CORES install
+```
+
+Configure your editor to use the `clangd` from the shell, either by running it inside the development shell, or by using [nix-direnv](https://github.com/nix-community/nix-direnv) and [the appropriate editor plugin](https://github.com/direnv/direnv/wiki#editor-integration).
+
+> **Note**
+>
+> For some editors (e.g. Visual Studio Code), you may need to install a [special extension](https://open-vsx.org/extension/llvm-vs-code-extensions/vscode-clangd) for the editor to interact with `clangd`.
+> Some other editors (e.g. Emacs, Vim) need a plugin to support LSP servers in general (e.g. [lsp-mode](https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-mode) for Emacs and [vim-lsp](https://github.com/prabirshrestha/vim-lsp) for vim).
+> Editor-specific setup is typically opinionated, so we will not cover it here in more detail.

+    If the special attribute `__structuredAttrs` is set to `true`, the other derivation
+    attributes are serialised in JSON format and made available to the

+    directory. This obviates the need for [`passAsFile`](#adv-attr-passAsFile) since JSON files
+    have no size restrictions, unlike process environments.
+
+    It also makes it possible to tweak derivation settings in a structured way; see
+    [`outputChecks`](#adv-attr-outputChecks) for example.
+
+    As a convenience to Bash builders,
+    Nix writes a script named `.attrs.sh` to the builder’s directory
+    that initialises shell variables corresponding to all attributes
+    that are representable in Bash. This includes non-nested
+    (associative) arrays. For example, the attribute `hardening.format = true`
+    ends up as the Bash associative array element `${hardening[format]}`.

+# Backporting
+
+To [automatically backport a pull request](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/master/.github/workflows/backport.yml) to a release branch once it's merged, assign it a label of the form [`backport <branch>`](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/labels?q=backport).
+
+Since [GitHub Actions workflows will not trigger other workflows](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/triggering-a-workflow#triggering-a-workflow-from-a-workflow), checks on the automatic backport need to be triggered by another actor.
+This is achieved by closing and reopening the backport pull request.
+
+This specifically affects the [`installer_test`] check.
+Note that it only runs after the other tests, so it may take a while to appear.
+
+[`installer_test`]: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/895dfc656a21f6252ddf48df0d1f215effa04ecb/.github/workflows/ci.yml#L70-L91

+# Nix release process
+
+## Release artifacts
+
+The release process is intended to create the following for each
+release:
+
+* A Git tag
+
+* Binary tarballs in https://releases.nixos.org/?prefix=nix/
+
+* Docker images
+
+* Closures in https://cache.nixos.org
+
+* (Optionally) Updated `fallback-paths.nix` in Nixpkgs
+
+* An updated manual on https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/
+
+## Creating a new release from the `master` branch
+
+* Make sure that the [Hydra `master` jobset](https://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nix/master) succeeds.
+
+* In a checkout of the Nix repo, make sure you're on `master` and run
+  `git pull`.
+
+* Move the contents of `doc/manual/src/release-notes/rl-next.md`
+  (except the first line) to
+  `doc/manual/src/release-notes/rl-$VERSION.md` (where `$VERSION` is
+  the contents of `.version` *without* the patch level, e.g. `2.12`
+  rather than `2.12.0`).
+
+* Add a header to `doc/manual/src/release-notes/rl-$VERSION.md` like
+
+  ```
+  # Release 2.12 (2022-12-06)
+  ```
+
+* Proof-read / edit / rearrange the release notes. Breaking changes
+  and highlights should go to the top.
+
+* Add a link to the release notes to `doc/manual/src/SUMMARY.md.in`
+  (*not* `SUMMARY.md`), e.g.
+
+  ```
+  - [Release 2.12 (2022-12-06)](release-notes/rl-2.12.md)
+  ```
+
+* Run
+
+  ```console
+  $ git checkout -b release-notes
+  $ git add doc/manual/src/release-notes/rl-$VERSION.md
+  $ git commit -a -m 'Release notes'
+  $ git push --set-upstream $REMOTE release-notes
+  ```
+
+* Create a PR for `release-notes`.
+
+* Wait for the PR to be merged.
+
+* Create a branch for the release:
+
+  ```console
+  $ git checkout master
+  $ git pull
+  $ git checkout -b $VERSION-maintenance
+  ```
+
+* Mark the release as stable:
+
+  ```console
+  $ git cherry-pick f673551e71942a52b6d7ae66af8b67140904a76a
+  ```
+
+  This removes the link to `rl-next.md` from the manual and sets
+  `officialRelease = true` in `flake.nix`.
+
+* Push the release branch:
+
+  ```console
+  $ git push --set-upstream origin $VERSION-maintenance
+  ```
+
+* Create a jobset for the release branch on Hydra as follows:
+
+  * Go to the jobset of the previous release
+  (e.g. https://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nix/maintenance-2.11).
+
+  * Select `Actions -> Clone this jobset`.
+
+  * Set identifier to `maintenance-$VERSION`.
+
+  * Set description to `$VERSION release branch`.
+
+  * Set flake URL to `github:NixOS/nix/$VERSION-maintenance`.
+
+  * Hit `Create jobset`.
+
+* Wait for the new jobset to evaluate and build. If impatient, go to
+  the evaluation and select `Actions -> Bump builds to front of
+  queue`.
+
+* When the jobset evaluation has succeeded building, take note of the
+  evaluation ID (e.g. `1780832` in
+  `https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1780832`).
+
+* Tag the release and upload the release artifacts to
+  [`releases.nixos.org`](https://releases.nixos.org/) and [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/):
+
+  ```console
+  $ IS_LATEST=1 ./maintainers/upload-release.pl <EVAL-ID>
+  ```
+
+  Note: `IS_LATEST=1` causes the `latest-release` branch to be
+  force-updated. This is used by the `nixos.org` website to get the
+  [latest Nix manual](https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable/).
+
+  TODO: This script requires the right AWS credentials. Document.
+
+  TODO: This script currently requires a
+  `/home/eelco/Dev/nix-pristine` and
+  `/home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs-pristine`.
+
+  TODO: trigger nixos.org netlify: https://docs.netlify.com/configure-builds/build-hooks/
+* Prepare for the next point release by editing `.version` to
+  e.g.
+
+  ```console
+  $ echo 2.12.1 > .version
+  $ git commit -a -m 'Bump version'
+  $ git push
+  ```
+
+  Commit and push this to the maintenance branch.
+
+* Bump the version of `master`:
+
+  ```console
+  $ git checkout master
+  $ git pull
+  $ NEW_VERSION=2.13.0
+  $ echo -n $NEW_VERSION > .version
+  $ git checkout -b bump-$NEW_VERSION
+  $ git commit -a -m 'Bump version'
+  $ git push --set-upstream origin bump-$NEW_VERSION
+  ```
+
+  Make a pull request and auto-merge it.
+
+* Create a milestone for the next release, move all unresolved issues
+  from the previous milestone, and close the previous milestone. Set
+  the date for the next milestone 6 weeks from now.
+
+* Create a backport label
+
+* Post an [announcement on Discourse](https://discourse.nixos.org/c/announcements/8), including the contents of
+  `rl-$VERSION.md`.
+
+## Creating a point release
+
+* Wait for the desired evaluation of the maintenance jobset to finish
+  building.
+
+* Run
+
+  ```console
+  $ IS_LATEST=1 ./maintainers/upload-release.pl <EVAL-ID>
+  ```
+
+  Omit `IS_LATEST=1` when creating a point release that is not on the
+  most recent stable branch. This prevents `nixos.org` to going back
+  to an older release.
+
+* Bump the version number of the release branch as above (e.g. to
+  `2.12.2`).
+  
+## Recovering from mistakes
+
+`upload-release.pl` should be idempotent. For instance a wrong `IS_LATEST` value can be fixed that way, by running the script on the actual latest release.
