This repo contains my configuration for NixOS on Asahi Linux. It's obviously meant for my personal use, but there might useful nuggets here and there if you want to reference it in your own config :)
I use a flake to manage my NixOS and home-manager configurations. Home-manager handles installation and configuration of pretty much all the apps available to the user, while NixOS handles hardware-specific configuration. My general rule of thumb is that if it shouldn't be on every computer I deploy my config to, it shouldn't be configured with home-manager.
To keep everything organized (especially in home-manager) I've settled on a few design patterns worth noting:
- All options that I define are within the
modulesorutilsattrsets. In general, an option should go onmodulesif it directly affects the home-manager configuration, andutilsif it supplies a utility for other modules. - For modules that define a lot of options, a file named
options.nixshould be created to handle these options' declaration and use. Meanwhile, the same directory'sdefault.nixshould importoptions.nixand configure said options. Thexfceandmailmodules demonstrate this pattern.
- Secrets management with sops-nix
- Multi-account gmail integration with mu4e, mbsync, and msmtp, for use with my doom emacs config
- Asahi linux support with nixos-apple-silicon, including touchbar support with tiny-dfr
- XFCE desktop environment support
- Full theming support with nix-colors, including automatic theme generation for GTK, emacs, alacritty, and qutebrowser
