I like the concept digga/devos uses (unfortunately their stuff kind of is an overengineered incomprehensible mess): They use: - modules: for modules like in nixpkgs (i.e. stuff that defines options and generates configuration based on that options; are included into every host) - profiles: concrete configuration, can be included to host definitions - suites: sets of profiles (so you can for example have a desktop suite with all your profiles with "desktop" configuration options and apply that to all your desktop computers)
I've messed around with deploy.rs. Simple enough to know what's going on.
As for organization, I think it's a matter of finding what works for you. I try to keep system installations small as possible, abstract out the shared parts and include the programs I need through home manager. Anything I don't use all the time, I adhoc install through nix-shell -p. Try to read through as many configs as you have the patience. To add to your list here's mine: https://github.com/dmadisetti/.dots
As for the community repo, there's nur but only 120 people use it.. I think the reason nixpkgs is so big is that the community is pretty accepting of accepting loads of different packages.
