Thoughts on flake-parts? (self.nix)

I've been working on my configuration for a while now using flakes. I can already understand the appeal of flake-parts, and my configuration has always been spread out across multiple files according to specific features. ATM I don't really have any good modules to share, but what's your opinion?

Hey thanks, this is the sort of perspective I was looking for. As far as you've revealed, I'm pretty sure we have nearly the same setup.

I wanted to see if flake-parts would be any enhancement, but it seems not since I'm also managing servers with along with my personal huge flake. I'm working on moving git-crypt out of my config so I can rebuild it straight from git, but I can't find a way to declare my email in secrets (sops-nix you're good at everything but...not trivial secrets)
