### To use MX Master 3 bluetooth mouse with kanata
> [!NOTE]
> Not using kanata anymore, got my zsa voyager keyboard.
- Reset kanata
- Restart Keychron keyboard
- Both keyboard and mouse should be working
## Commands to make it work (For future me)
### Installing Nix on Macos
```bash
sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install)
```
### Configure github helper
> [!NOTE]
> Not using this anymore, this can configured directly with github cli
```bash
git credential-oauth configure
```
### Getting localhostname
```bash
scutil --get LocalHostName
```
### Getting username
```bash
whoami
```
### Switch to fish shell
```bash
chsh -s (which fish)
```
### Build nix to results
```bash
sudo nix --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes' build .#darwinConfigurations.your-local-hostname.system
```
### Initialise darwin rebuild
```bash
./result/sw/bin/darwin-rebuild switch --flake ~/nix-system-config
```
### Cleanup
```bash
bash ~/nix-system-config/cleanup.sh
```
### Installing NPM packages that are not available in Nix
Navigate to `...../modules/home-manager/node-packages` and run the following command to generate a nix expression. The expression can then be added into home manager
- `-18` is to build with nodejs v18
```bash
nix-shell -p nodePackages.node2nix --command "node2nix -18 -i ./node-packages.json -o node"
```
### To fix ungoogled-chromium icloud password not working
```bash
echo '{
