  1. digga

    A flake utility library to craft shell-, home-, and hosts- environments.

    I no longer use the official way since I have switched to flakes. I am currently using a devos-based config, which is a boilerplate that depends on a Nix toolchain, but I plan on rewriting the config with flake-utils-plus. You probably can install home-manager using deploy-rs. See the following comment:

  5. Home Manager using Nix

    Manage a user environment using Nix [maintainer=@rycee]

    FWIW, some time ago home-manager build|instantiate|switch started accepting a --flake argument. Perhaps that is what you are looking for?
