+You can use this techniques in your own projects. You can take out any modules
or packages and put them into your project with your modifications without
maintaning a fork of Nixsap. When taking modules you have to change the
`nixsap` namespace to something different to avoid conflicts.
+It is also possible to build and install packages that are overridden
+by Nixsap, for example:
+
+```
+nix-env -I nixpkgs=/path/to/vanila/nixpkgs -f /path/to/nixsap/pkgs -i nodejs-sass
