How is this package distributed?

Via a nix flake. Maybe as a regular nix package too.

It is supported in nvim-lspconfig https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/doc/server_configurations.md#nixd

Thank you for making mason.nvim. It really is awesome :smile:

Research direction
Examine existing package definitions in the mason.nvim repository, such as for other LSP servers like `lua language server` or `rust analyzer`. The nixd home page and nvim lspconfig docs provide the necessary server configuration. Implement a similar package definition for nixd, ensuring it includes the correct installation method (nix flake or nix package) and server configuration. Test locally following the contribution guidelines.
