Also: setting up services to run when the system boots.  For example, Homebrew
tells you how to add a symlinks in ~/Library/LaunchAgents so that PostgreSQL
can start when the machine boots (it simply prints the command to the terminal
as an informational message).  We can do the same thing with Nix, it's just a
question of informing the user how.
