# Starting a Nix Shell
There are two ways to start the nix shell.
## Directly using github URL
To get a shell with the development environment installed in it, use the
following command:
```
nix-shell https://github.com/composewell/nixpack-editors/archive/master.tar.gz
```
## By cloning the github repo
You can clone the `nixpack-editors` repo and run `nix-shell`
command from the repo root directory.
```
git clone https://github.com/composewell/nixpack-editors
cd nixpack-editors
nix-shell
```
You can comment out any packages you do not need in
[packages.nix](packages.nix).
# Installing the packages
If you want to permanently install the packages in your nix profile:
```
nix-env -i -f https://github.com/composewell/nixpack-editors/archive/master.tar.gz
```
# Using vim editor
Inside the nix shell, run the following command:
```
nvim
```
Use `ESC :q` to quit.
Use `,h` for help.
Use `:colorscheme morning` if you want a light theme.
To customize vim plugins edit the [nix/vim/plugins.nix](nix/vim/plugins.nix) file.
# Using VSCode editor
To run VSCodium, the open source version of Microsoft VSCode, run the
following command in the nix-shell:
```
codium
```
