My previous message showed how to a create custom development 
environment including snekde. Another option is to overlay snekde onto 
nixpkgs making it available just like any other package. This is a nice 
way make snekde available in all the nix tools for a user or the system.

This is an overlay:

final: prev: { snekde = final.callPackage snekde/default.nix {}; }

It's a procedure of two arguments returning a set which will be merged 
with the package set. Various hooks in the nix tools apply a sequence of 
overlays to nixpkgs, and there is also syntax for using overlays in the 
nix language's import expression.

Refer to the nix manual and/or wiki for specifics. Most likely you would 
add the overlay in ~/.config/nixpkgs/overlays/ for a user. Under NixOS 
you could put it in /etc/nixos/configuration.nix for the whole system.
