This LGTM except ... the first paragraphs (quoted below) are an advertisement. This is out of place in a tutorial. So, IMO, they should simply be removed.

If you don't remove them, then at least move the paragraph quoted below to the top of the piece ... > The following tutorial covers all the basics around package creation > with Guix. It does not assume much knowledge of the Guix system nor > of the Lisp language. The reader is only expected to be familiar with > the command line and to have some basic programming knowledge. ... and preface the above mentioned paragraphs with something like ... # Guix is a unique approach to package management HTH - George
