nixos-config/README.md

hello

this is my attempt at managing a common configuration between multiple machines, including my main study (mini)pc as well as my old laptop and perhaps later my gaming pc.

i have purposefully removed and avoided home-manager, because i never ended up utilizing it much. so here is my way to version control and handle my dot files across multiple machines, by deploying a little scripting and some symlinks. let's see how this works.

overview

• hosts/ contains the machine-specific configurations
• dotfiles/ contains various configuration files to be placed in ~/.config on a fresh install.
• modules/ contains nixos modules to be imported by machines for a modular configuration with all the shared config found in modules/base.nix
• install-dotfiles.nu is a shell script that adds symlinks to .config/<subdir>/<configfile> for all dotfiles/<subdir>/<configfile>
