FWIW, this runs on all OS and arches.

That’s right, at least Darwin should be in there. Since nixpkgs support for systems besides Linux and Darwin is currently spotty, I wouldn’t add any other systems to there for now, because it might be broken because of some dependency in nixpkgs. I’ll set this to include {aarch64,x86_64}-{darwin,linux}, which is what the official nixpkgs binary cache currently provides, though I can’t test if it builds on Darwin.

The point I was making is that the code is not architecture-specific at all, so IMHO we should not constraint supportedSystems? But I may not understand everything there.

Bump github actions versions #75
This PR is a part of the Summer of Nix project, which is funded by an EU grant connected to NGI Zero and NLNet. We are packaging software funded by and tightly related to NGI Zero projects.
It adds a build expression for Nix, a purely functional package manager that helps with achieving reproducibility.
Please let me know if you have any questions about this.
