README

        
This repository holds my dotfiles setup. It is based on [[https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager][home-manager]], a [[https://nixos.org/][Nix]]

based approach to handling all dependencies and setup. This means that all

dotfiles are actually symlinked to the nix store, and are immutable. This in

turn means I'll have to deploy changes every time I want to change something,

but I can live with it.

* Installation

** Command Line Tools

   Command Line Tools are needed to build various things, and bring in git.

   #+begin_src bash

     xcode-select --install

   #+end_src

** =nix=

   The new installer from Determinate Systems is really good, and the option to use single user mode disappeared from all installers, so:

   #+begin_src bash

     curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install

     source "$HOME/.nix-profile/etc/profile.d/nix.sh"

   #+end_src

** Applications

   These tools can't be installed by home-manager, because they are macOS

   applications. So, install them manually.

** Misc

    One can't live without good fonts. I prefer Iosevka:

    [[https://github.com/be5invis/Iosevka/releases][Iosevka Term SS08]]. This font

    will be installed by home-manager.

** dotfiles

   Finally, just run the following command:

   #+begin_src bash

     nix-shell

     home-manager switch

   #+end_src

   

   Afterwards, it's just riding on the good wave of direnv and aliases:

   #+begin_src bash

     z skel

     stash; gl --rebase; unstash

     d reload

     hm switch

   #+end_src
