Welcome to my precious dotfiles!

• So you search for something, some tutorials for help with configuring something, and you end up here and are completely blank what is going on

Don’t worry this readme is there just to tackle this very issue

What do my dots contain?

• These dots contain my configurations for:
  1. Nix Flakes, configuration.nix (flake.nix and under NixOS directory )
  2. Xmoand, dwm and qtile Window Managers (under .xmonad, config and suckless for dwm ofc)
  3. some other tools like st, alacritty, kitty, Emacs and other stuff

  Note for Emacs, better to use dotfiles/emacs.d-gnu, I have also got doom.d configured with a lot of stuff, kept as emergency

How to set it up on NixOS

1. Make sure to clone the repo to ~~/dotfiles~ (a lot of stuff is hard coded to this path)
2. on NixOS, for first time installation first copy dotfiles/NixOS ~/etc/nixos/configuration.nix

   sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake ~/dotfiles -L
       

   and to setup home manager for the first time:

   nix run --no-write-lock-file --impure github:nix-community/home-manager -- switch   --flake ~/dotfiles
       

   finally

   sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake ~/dotfiles -L
   home-manager switch --flake ~/dotfiles
