My personal NixOS configurations designed with focus on usability, aesthetics and productivity :)

Install instructions

To get these configurations running, first set up a NixOS system with a user account.
Then copy your age key to ~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt. This is needed in order to decrypt the secrets which are used in the system and the home configuration.
Now we can start actually installing the configurations. Go into a shell with git installed:

nix-shell -p git

Then clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/leon-erd/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles

To get the hardware configuration on a new system, either copy from /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix or run:

cd ~/dotfiles
sudo nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config > hosts/<host>/hardware-configuration.nix

Make sure to update the systemSettings and userSettings in hosts/<host>/flakeConfiguration.nix to your needs:

...
let
  systemSettings = {
    hostname = "leon-inspiron";
    timezone = "Europe/Vienna";
    defaultLocale = "en_US.UTF-8";
...

Once the variables are set, switch into the system configuration by running:

cd ~/dotfiles
sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake ./#<systemConfigurationName>

where systemConfigurationName corresponds to the value set in hosts/<host>/flakeConfiguration.nix.

The home-manager configuration can be installed with (might need to logout/login once before):

cd ~/dotfiles
home-manager switch --flake ./#<userConfigurationName>
