This repository configures all of my digital devices that run ✨ NixOS ✨ !
This repository can be useful if you're relatively experienced with NixOS and are looking for inspiration. If you are a complete beginner, I recommend looking elsewhere first:

A machine, such as a server or laptop, is called a host.
Host configurations live in the hosts directory. The configuration of a host is comprised of three parts:
- a hardware configuration
- a system configuration
- a home configuration
All of these files are imported by ./flake.nix.
Software installed on a system-level is configured in sys. All files here are NixOS modules and their configuration options are namespaced under skogsbrus. Hosts declare and configure their system modules in ./hosts/<hostname>/system.nix.
Software and configuration files in user-land live in home and is configured by Home Manager and are for the most part also NixOS modules.
- Add it to
flake.nix. - Add a new folder in hosts with a hardware, system, and home configuration.
- Run
make. - Done!
Note that the hostname of the new device must match the name of the host in ./flake.nix.
