nix-configs - Configuration as Code

My Nix{OS} configuration files to help me setup my machine in minutes using HM.

Overview

• nix configuration for my laptops, desktops and more
• nix flake-powered
• guaranteed to be reproducible

Disclaimer

This config is mainly based on nix-configs. Some of the repositories that helped me to build this config:

• https://github.com/thiagokokada/nix-configs
• https://github.com/bqv/nixrc
• https://github.com/colemickens/nixcfg
• https://github.com/hlissner/dotfiles
• https://github.com/Mic92/dotfiles
• https://github.com/nrdxp/nixflk
• https://github.com/anujc4/dotfiles

Also, some extra resources and documentation about Flakes:

• Flakes in NixOS Wiki
• Nix Flakes blog posts from @eldostra
• Nix documentation

Remember: Flakes is experimental, so you shouldn't try this approach until you have some experience in Nix.

Rules

• Automate everything, configuration as code.
• Prefer to nix whenever possible.
  • yay or brew only for OS specific packages.

Installation

Home Manager (standalone)

Start by installing Nix:

$ sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon

To build the Home Manager standalone and activate its configuration, run:

$ nix run '.#homeActivations/<hostname>' --accept-flake-config

Happy hacking!
