README
# Stylix
Stylix is a NixOS module which applies the same colour scheme, font and
wallpaper to a range of applications and desktop environments.## What's this?
[base16.nix](https://github.com/SenchoPens/base16.nix#readme) allows you to
import colours from [base16](https://github.com/chriskempson/base16#readme)
into Nix code. Stylix takes this a step further:- Automatically colours and changes the font of apps
- Sets your wallpaper
- Exports the colour scheme to be used manually for anything we missed
- Can also generate themes based on an imageFor those not familiar with [NixOS](https://nixos.org/) and
[Home Manager](https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager#readme):- NixOS is a Linux distribution
- Home Manager is a program which runs anywhere
- Both use the Nix language and package manager
- Both let you install programs and change settings via codeStylix supports either NixOS + Home Manager, or Home Manager on its own.
Certain features are only available with NixOS.## Resources
Please refer to the [Stylix book](https://danth.github.io/stylix/)
for instructions and a list of supported apps.For a visual guide, watch the [*Ricing Linux Has Never Been Easier | NixOS +
Stylix*](https://youtu.be/ljHkWgBaQWU) YouTube video by

to apply the settings completely.
