# My Awesome Dotfiles
My dotfiles collection for a flawless workflow. Starring `zsh`, `nvim`, `tmux`, and [NixOS](https://nixos.org).

## Bootstrapping NixOS
> [!WARNING]
>
> All data will be erased to install NixOS! These instructions are not indented for any users but myself (**@maxbrunet**), read scripts carefully!1. Download and boot the [NixOS installer](https://nixos.org/download.html#nixos-iso)
2. If using WiFi, connect to it:```shell
wpa_passphrase | sudo tee /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp3s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
```3. Run bootstrap script:
```shell
sudo -i
nix-env -iA nixos.git
git clone https://github.com/maxbrunet/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles
./scripts/bootstrap.sh
reboot
```4. Generate SSH key:
```shell
/etc/nixos/scripts/generate-ssh-key.sh
```5. Install Rust toolchain:
```shell
rustup toolchain install stable --component rust-analyzer
```> [!NOTE]

> - Solid-state Drive is checked for the virtual disk## Bootstrapping macOS
> At least it is not Windows.
1. Install [Homebrew](https://brew.sh)
2. Install [Nix](https://nixos.org/download.html#nix-install-macos)
3. Install the dotfiles:```shell
mkdir -p ~/.config
git clone https://github.com/maxbrunet/dotfiles.git ~/.config/darwin
cd ~/.config/darwin
git remote set-url origin [email protected]:maxbrunet/dotfiles.git
```4. Prepare system for `nix-darwin`:
```shell
sudo mv /etc/bashrc /etc/bashrc.orig
sudo mv /etc/shells /etc/shells.orig
sudo mv /etc/zshrc /etc/zshrc.orig
sudo mv /etc/nix/nix.conf /etc/nix/nix.conf.orig
printf 'run\tprivate/var/run\n' | sudo tee -a /etc/synthetic.conf
/System/Library/Filesystems/apfs.fs/Contents/Resources/apfs.util -t
```5. Install [nix-darwin](https://daiderd.com/nix-darwin/):
```shell
nix --extra-experimental-features 'flakes nix-command' build ".#darwinConfigurations.$(scutil --get LocalHostName).system"
./result/sw/bin/darwin-rebuild switch --flake .
```6. Change login shell to Nix's Zsh:
```shell
chsh -s /run/current-system/sw/bin/zsh maxime
```7. Configure SSH client:
```shell
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 100
cat >>~/.ssh/config <>~/.ssh/config <
