+# Build helpers {#part-builders}
+
+A build helper is a function that produces derivations.
+
+:::{.warning}
+This is not to be confused with the [`builder` argument of the Nix `derivation` primitive](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/unstable/language/derivations.html), which refers to the executable that produces the build result, or [remote builder](https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/advanced-topics/distributed-builds.html), which refers to a remote  machine that could run such an executable.
+:::
+
+Such a function is usually designed to abstract over a typical workflow for a given programming language or framework.
+This allows declaring a build recipe by setting a limited number of options relevant to the particular use case instead of using the `derivation` function directly.
+
+[`stdenv.mkDerivation`](#part-stdenv) is the most widely used build helper, and serves as a basis for many others.
+In addition, it offers various options to customize parts of the builds.
+
+There is no uniform interface for build helpers.
+[Trivial build helpers](#chap-trivial-builders) and [fetchers](#chap-pkgs-fetchers) have various input types for convenience.
+[Language- or framework-specific build helpers](#chap-language-support) usually follow the style of `stdenv.mkDerivation`, which accepts an attribute set or a fixed-point function taking an attribute set.

 Since release 15.09 there is a new TeX Live packaging that lives entirely under attribute `texlive`.
 
+## User's guide (experimental new interface) {#sec-language-texlive-user-guide-experimental}
+
+Release 23.11 ships with a new interface that will eventually replace `texlive.combine`.
+
+- For basic usage, use some of the prebuilt environments available at the top level, such as `texliveBasic`, `texliveSmall`. For the full list of prebuilt environments, inspect `texlive.schemes`.
+
+- Packages cannot be used directly but must be assembled in an environment. To create or add packages to an environment, use
+  ```nix
+  texliveSmall.withPackages (ps: with ps; [ collection-langkorean algorithms cm-super ])
+  ```
+  The function `withPackages` can be called multiple times to add more packages.
+
+  - **Note.** Within Nixpkgs, packages should only use prebuilt environments as inputs, such as `texliveSmall` or `texliveInfraOnly`, and should not depend directly on `texlive`. Further dependencies should be added by calling `withPackages`. This is to ensure that there is a consistent and simple way to override the inputs.
+
+- `texlive.withPackages` uses the same logic as `buildEnv`. Only parts of a package are installed in an environment: its 'runtime' files (`tex` output), binaries (`out` output), and support files (`tlpkg` output). Moreover, man and info pages are assembled into separate `man` and `info` outputs. To add only the TeX files of a package, or its documentation (`texdoc` output), just specify the outputs:
+  ```nix
+  texlive.withPackages (ps: with ps; [
+    texdoc # recommended package to navigate the documentation
+    perlPackages.LaTeXML.tex # tex files of LaTeXML, omit binaries
+    cm-super
+    cm-super.texdoc # documentation of cm-super
+  ])
+  ```
+
+- All packages distributed by TeX Live, which contains most of CTAN, are available and can be found under `texlive.pkgs`:
+  ```ShellSession
+  $ nix repl
+  nix-repl> :l <nixpkgs>
+  nix-repl> texlive.pkgs.[TAB]
+  ```
+  Note that the packages in `texlive.pkgs` are only provided for search purposes and must not be used directly.
+
+- **Experimental and subject to change without notice:** to add the documentation for all packages in the environment, use
+  ```nix
+  texliveSmall.__overrideTeXConfig { withDocs = true; }
+  ```
+  This can be applied before or after calling `withPackages`.
+
+  The function currently support the parameters `withDocs`, `withSources`, and `requireTeXPackages`.

 ## User's guide {#sec-language-texlive-user-guide}
 
 - For basic usage just pull `texlive.combined.scheme-basic` for an environment with basic LaTeX support.
