Nixos

everything is a f(x)

• I use nix BTW!
• Download the latest iso from this site
• Installation guide
• Manual
• Nix docs

minimal wayland setup

• minimal nixos base
• wm: sway
• terminal: foot
• term font: monospace
• font: freesans

setup

• use configuration.nix and flake.nix files from the repo and rebuild the system to have a more reproducible build [implement home-manager for more reproducibility]

(automatic updates are enabled, so running these commands are not necesssary on a daily basis)

flake

  nix flake update
  nix flake update home-manager #[if using home-manager]

• Apply the updates

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .

Recommended softwares

• Firefox --> Librewolf (if you wanna use good old firefox, do not use the stock version; I recommend using a custom 'user.js' from arkenfox for enhanced security or Betterfox for a sweetspot between ease of use and better security
• neovim - default editor
• mpv - media player
• tmux - terminal multiplexer

Feel free to use the config files!!
