The Determinate Nix Installer
Now that this binary installer exists I would definitely recommend it.
I’ve deleted Homebrew from my system and I’m now using the same home-manager setup for my macOS laptops as well as my WSL installation on windows.
It’s so great to have the exact same tools and shell configuration installed everywhere.
I have not used flakes yet but if that will help me deal with the differences between my systems I’m definitely for it!
E.g I have a work Mac, personal Mac, personal PC with WSL.
When on my work machine, usernames are different and my Git config should identify me as me, and I shouldn’t have access to my personal credential for personal GitHub, RSA private keys for personal servers, etc.
But all else should be the same.
Mostly there but the credentials part I am still figuring out.
If you want to check it out, it’s here: https://github.com/leonbreedt/dotfiles
Won’t work for you out of the box tho as it depends on private repo for sensitive configs.
