 Flakes is one of the most significant changes the nix project has ever seen.[^2]
 
+In simple terms, if you've worked with some JavaScript/Go/Rust/Python, you should be familiar with files like `package.json`/`go.mod`/`Cargo.toml`/`pyproject.toml`. In these programming languages, these files are used to describe the dependencies between software packages and how to build projects.
+
+Similarly, the package managers in these programming languages also use files like `package-lock.json`/`go.sum`/`Cargo.lock`/`poetry.lock` to lock the versions of dependencies, ensuring the reproducibility of projects.
+
+Flakes borrow ideas from these package managers to enhance the reproducibility, composability, and usability of the Nix ecosystem.
+Flakes introduce `flake.nix`, similar to `package.json`, to describe the dependencies between Nix packages and how to build projects. 
+Additionally, it provides `flake.lock`, akin to `package-lock.json`, to lock the versions of dependencies, ensuring project reproducibility.

 ## A Word of Caution about Flakes <Badge type="danger" text="caution" />
 
 The benefits of Flakes are evident, and the entire NixOS community has embraced it wholeheartedly. Currently, more than half of the users utilize Flakes[^3], providing assurance that Flakes will not be deprecated.

+简单的说，如果你写过点 JavaScript/Go/Rust/Python，那你应该对 `package.json`/`go.mod`/`Cargo.toml`/`pyproject.toml` 这些文件不陌生，

+Flakes 就是从上述这类编程语言的包管理器中借鉴了一些思想，以提高 Nix 生态系统中的可复现性、可组合性和可用性。
+Flakes 提供了 `flake.nix`，它类似 `package.json`，用来描述 Nix 包之间的依赖关系，以及如何构建项目。
+同时它还提供了 `flake.lock`，这是一个类似 `package-lock.json` 的文件，用来锁定依赖的版本，以保证项目的可复现性。

 ## 注意事项 <Badge type="danger" text="caution" />
 
 Flakes 带来的好处是显而易见的，整个 NixOS 社区都很喜欢它，目前超过半数的用户已经在大量使用 Flakes[^3]，因此我们可以相当确定 Flakes 不会被废弃。
