About The Project

There are many great nix configurations templates available on GitHub; however, this is mine. I like it because:

• It is simplistic
• It is based on flakes, system and home-manager are (re)built together, always. Stop bothering with nixos-rebuild and home-manager switch
• Almost all packages and configuration are on user level either made through home-manager or custom code

Of course, no one nix config will serve everyones taste You may also suggest changes by forking this repo and creating a pull request or opening an issue.

Getting Started

1. Install NixOS
2. Enable flakes
3. Setup your user with a passwd
4. Clone the repo
5. Make sure to update hardware-configuration.nix (!)
6. Tweak the username (here)
7. Build it

How to build
