A set of simple, documented Nix flake templates for getting started with NixOS and home-manager. It provides minimal and standard boilerplate configurations including custom packages, overlays, and modules.
Use cases
- set up a NixOS configuration with flakes for the first time
- migrate my existing dotfiles to home-manager flakes
- learn good practices for structuring a nix flake config
- bootstrap a nix config with custom packages and overlays
- use home-manager on a non-NixOS Linux distro or macOS
- find a starting template for declarative NixOS setup
When to choose
- you are new to NixOS, flakes, or home-manager and want documented boilerplate
- you want a minimal or standard template with overlays and custom packages ready to go
- you want a CC0-licensed base you can freely copy into your own config repo
When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained config guaranteed up to date with the latest NixOS changes - the repo may drift out of date
- you already have a mature, complex flake setup with your own module structure
- you are looking for a full dotfiles collection rather than a starter template
