The System and Service Manager systemd provides the building blocks for Linux systems, and it’s the default in NixOS — though, there are a few alternatives such as finix and sixos that currently explore this design space.

As someone currently self-hosting a few services on my NixOS servers, it’s almost a daily command by now.
