+This repo is a collection of files that should help Nix and NixOS users install matlab imperatively.
+
+== How to use this
+
+=== Installation of matlab itself
+
+==== Run `matlab-shell` with +++<s>stable</s>+++ legacy Nix
+
+==== Run `matlab-shell` with an unstable Nix
+
+=== Adding `matlab` executables to your system
+
+==== For NixOS users with a flakes setup
+
+==== For NixOS users without a flakes setup
