NixOS Configuration

To install remove everything from /etc/nixos and symlink the flake.nix to /etc/nixos/flake.nix. Because I am dumb many obvious things are explained here and in comments inside the configuration. This is very WIP and some parts are pretty dumb as I am still learning the NixOS ecosystem.

I heavily borrowed from:

• (misterio77)[https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-config]

./nixos

This folder contains all the system configurations.

• There is a common configuration used for all systems: NixFlake/nixos
• Every system has its own special configuration: NixFlake/nixos/<hostname>

When creating a NixOS configuration inside the NixFlake/flake.nix the common configuration is imported. Because the hostname is propagated to the common configuration, it can import the host-specific config by itself.

./home

This folder contains all the home-manager configurations.

• There is a configuration for each user: NixFlake/home/<username>
• There is a common configuration for all systems of this user: NixFlake/home/<username>/<hostname>

When creating a NixOS configuration inside the NixFlake/flake.nix the common configuration is imported. Because the hostname is propagated to the common configuration, it can import the host-specific config by itself.
