 # guixie
 guixie guile bootstrap for introspective self modifiying system.
+
+the idea is to have it create itself
+via rewrites via guix derivations
+each instance can be seen as a self modifiying dao that can add functions
+to itself, it composes itself and creates a new version of itself to build the next version in a chain.
