Really have some trouble setup a minimal Neovim flake
Don't use nix build to build neovim. Add an overlay to your flake and use home-manager programs.neovim option. It will automatically compile latest neovim for you when you rebuild the configuration.

Goodbye Arch, hello sexy new SilverBlue
There is no centralised way of sharing user packages. But you can create package overlays or use sombodys overlays if you can find them (e.g. I use neovim nightly overlay).

Can I set make flags for a package?
Ok so I am using https://github.com/nix-community/neovim-nightly-overlay to build neovim from source in order to use the latest features. Does anyone know of any way I can specify makeflags, such as march=native or O3 when building the package? Thanks so much for your help.

NixOS' minimal ISO is now 100% reproducible!
I'm using https://github.com/nix-community/neovim-nightly-overlay which does get Neovim 0.5 running, it's just not using my init.lua properly, picking up its own init.vim instead.

How do I actually update home-manager?
$ home-manager --version 23.05 $ nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/release-23.11.tar.gz home-manager $ nix-channel --update $ nix-shell '' -A install [...] All done! The home-manager tool should now be installed and you can edit /home/MY-USERNAME/.config/home-manager/home.nix to configure Home Manager. Run 'man home-configuration.nix' to see all available options. $ home-manager --version 23.05

An Overview of Nix in Practice
> Channels are, AFAIU, a reference to some point-in-time/commit/version of nixpkgs
It's not specifically nixpkgs, but any Nix code generally.
Per the Nix manual[0]:
> Channels are a mechanism for referencing remote Nix expressions and conveniently retrieving their latest version.
e.g. home-manager's suggested channel is just the github tarball for the relevant branch[1]:
nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/master.tar.gz home-manager

Need help on home manager neovim config
I'm using flakes and home manager and not really sure how to go about managing my neovim configuration. I've read through some other posts, github issues, and various articles trying to suss out a good way to do this. Reading through other people's configs and posts was somewhat helpful but there is a lot going on I don't understand and everyone's examples I've seen vary wildly.

I want to like NixOS but... I can't and I need some help
I can't answer all your questions, but home-manager does have a dconf module that would probably be better to use than that external tool. Everything inside the options block are the things you can pass to the dconf module.
What are some alternatives?
