My current — and always evolving — NixOS configuration files, home-manager, neovim, etc.

## Hyprland

This is my current Window Manager — the hype Wayland kid on the block!

Further installation instructions

### Install

The `xmod` configuration also contains my Home Manager configuration using the NixOS module, so it can easily be tested with a single command.

```console

nixos-rebuild switch --flake github:gvolpe/nix-config#xmod

```

Or you can test it directly on a QEMU virtual machine, though it has its limitations in terms of graphics.

```console

nixos-rebuild build-vm --flake github:gvolpe/nix-config#xmod

./result/bin/run-xmod-amd-vm

```

Having both NixOS and Home Manager configurations combined makes it easier to quickly install it on a new machine, but my preference is to have both separate, as my Home Manager configuration changes more often than that of the NixOS one, which can result in multiple (unwanted) generations at boot time.

Managing the different Home Manager generations in isolation makes this way easier for me.

### NixOS

The NixOS configuration can be installed by running the following command.

```console

nixos-rebuild switch --flake github:gvolpe/nix-config#thinkpad-x1

```

Beware that the `hardware-configuration.nix` file is the result of the hardware scan of the specific machine and might not be suitable for yours.

### Home Manager

A fresh install requires the creation of certain directories (see what the `switch` script does). However, if you omit those steps, the entire HM configuration can also be built as any other flake.

```console

nix build github:gvolpe/nix-config#homeConfigurations.xmonad-edp.activationPackage

result/activate

```

### Fresh install

To set up a new machine from scratch, have a look at [this document](./notes/new-machine.md).
