linuxware

This repository contains the configuration of my main Linux based system(s), currently this repository consists of a NixOS system configuration alongside dotfiles generated by Home Manager and dotfiles maintained by me.

Navigation guide

In this section I will detail how you can navigate and make the most use out of my configuration.

File structure

• flake.nix & flake.lock
  • This is the "entry-point" of the NixOS configuration.
• hosts/
  • Inside you can find the per-system customizations I've made.
• modules/
  • These contain the modules I export in the flake.
• packages/
  • Encompasses the packages I maintain outside or in tandem with nixpkgs.
• shared/
  • The NixOS and Home Manager configuration that's shared across hosts.
• assets/
  • All media used in this configuration or shown inside READMEs.

Flake

A flake basically contains what you want to consume in your environment and what you want to export to be consumed, on top of having a lockfile to pin the versions of what you are consuming.

Personally, the best way to learn how to use it as a beginner is the Unofficial NixOS & Flakes Book. I will not explain how to configure or use my flake as that would be lenghty.

I export four modules that you can use in your configuration:

• Hyprland NixOS configuration
  • Accessed through <linuxware>.nixosModules.hyprland.
• Hyprland home-manager configuration
  • Accessed through <linuxware>.homeManagerModules.hyprland.
• Emacs home-manager configuration & dotfiles
  • Accessed through <linuxware>.homeManagerModules.emacs
• Neovim home-manager configuration & dotfiles
  • Accessed through <linuxware>.homeManagerModules.neovim.

Be sure to click the hyperlinks for the relevant documentation.

To facilitate on-boarding, once you've set-up the experimental features needed for flakes I have provided a template with this repository for you to use; it comes with a NixOS system configuration, Home Manager configuration alongside the modules that I provide.

All you have to do is enter the directory you want your configuration to reside and execute nix flake init -t github:wizardlink/linuxware. Be sure to read the README.md file!
