Project mention: Cosmic Desktop: Hammering Out New Cosmic Features | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-18It's probably overkill for what you are trying to do. But I have been using home-manager [0] as a way to quickly restore my working environment.
[0] https://nix-community.github.io/home-manager/
This is what I use to install custom awesomewm. This is taken from rxyhn/yuki dotfiles. And here is my dotfiles.
Project mention: NixOS-generators – Collection of VM and Container disk image builders for NixOS | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-26I’ve found it most helpful to review other people’s configurations to learn Nix.
Some specific ones I really like:
https://github.com/malob/nixpkgs
https://github.com/fufexan/dotfiles
I keep a not comprehensive GitHub Stars list of Nix stuff I find here if you want more:

If you aren’t familiar, Nix-Darwin allows you to codify your MacOS deployments in a fashion comparable to NixOS. As a huge Nix-Darwin user myself, I have found malob’s repo extremely helpful for ideas with MacOS configuration. Nix-Darwin has made me so happy as a MacOS user. :)
Some other unsolicited tips:
1. Start with Nix flakes for configuration
2. Invest in Home-Manager before NixOS or Nix-Darwin
3. Ask people for help in Matrix or Discourse — my experience is that Nix-related folk are very welcoming and understanding
Good luck!
I don't know. Have been using colorbuddy for ages now and it has always done exactly what I want. I don't need the "instant reaload" that lush advertices, doing :source on the colorscheme file, does the same for me to preview changes instantly. This is my theme, in case you need something to start with: - https://github.com/pinpox/nixos/blob/main/home-manager/modules/nvim/lua/config/pinpox-colors.lua
My server's repo and my dotfiles both use flake-parts, and you can do a github-grep to look for more.
You can also override the caddy package to inject modules into the build process without needing xcaddy: See https://github.com/oddlama/nix-config/blob/b5d2d31b6903f5829490513c1297e7ea1e54899c/pkgs/caddy.nix
I have private.nix in /etc/nixos and load it using a Nix plugin (see top-level README.md). If the plugin isn't installed, --impure works too.
