 your `.yarnrc.yml`:
 
 ```yml

-(`individualNixPackaging` is required to use `isolatedNixBuilds`.)

 In your Nix expression, separate options can be set to override attributes of
 these derivations, which is often necessary to provide build inputs. For
 sqlite3, you'd do the following in your `default.nix`:
