NixOS: A Productivity Focused and Promgramming-Oriented NixOS Flake

Getting Started

To get started with NixOS, follow these steps:

Installation: Install NixOS on your machine by following the official installation guide.
Enable Nix-Command and Flakes options: Edit your configuration.nix file located at /etc/nixos/configuration.nix adding this line ->
```
nix.settings.experimental-features = [ "nix-command" "flakes" ];
```
Rebuild your system (without the flake): Open a terminal and run ->
```
sudo nixos-rebuild switch
```
Clone this repo:
```
git clone https://github.com/etherbiswas/NixOS ~/dotfiles
```
rename .git to anything else before introducing new changes.
Edit username: By default, the username for all the configuration is ether and the hostname is areo13. You can change this as you want by editing in all the files (don't forget to rename the folder inside hosts). grep -i -R ether ~/.config/nixos/ and grep -i -R areo13 ~/.config/nixos/ are useful.
Copy your specific hardware-configuration.nix file: You need to copy your hardware-configuration.nix file located at /etc/nixos/hardware-configuration.nix to the hosts folder. Always do this on new installs even if same hardware to avoid boot issues.
Review default.nix file inside hosts folder. It contains the configuration for amd and intel. Choose accordingly to your hardware.
Apply the flake: Open a terminal and inside ~/.config/nixos/ run

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#<hostname>
