No it uses source deployment, although it's possible to use binaries as
well.
NixOS puts all the build packages in separate folder and does not use
standard /usr /lib /lib etc. folders, but one is assured that build deps
are always correct, as well as ability to e.g. have multiple versions of
some libs, atomic updates, easy to rollback to some previous
'generation'...see
http://nixos.org/releases/nix/nix-0.11/manual/#sec-profiles
Sincerely,
Gour
