Dotfiles

My NixOS configuration flake ❄️. A minimal, highly-functional, reproducible, declarative system.

Note

For my older Arch Linux system configuration (Wayland and X11), refer to the legacy/arch branch.

Main Software	NixOS (Wayland)
Editor	nvim
Shell	zsh
Terminal Emulator	foot
Terminal Workspace	zellij (with zellij-cb)
Window Manager	hyprland
System UI1	quickshell
Filesystem	btrfs on a LUKS encrypted partition

• $HOME management: Done with hjem instead of Home Manager as it aligns better with the simplicity I strive for.
• Short term recoverability: Running daily BTRFS subvolume snapshots of /home.
• Automatic weekly updates.

Architecture

Directory	Description
./hosts	Per machine configuration
./modules	Shared feature modules
./pkgs	Custom packages

Run my self-contained editor

You can try the custom nvim setup that I use every day without having to be on NixOS.

It is completely self-contained (bundled with all runtime dependencies, Neovim plugins, LSPs, linters, formatters, Tree-sitter grammars, and of course, my own configuration).

Install the nix package manager and just run:

nix run github:ndavd/dotfiles#nvim

Run checks

nix flake check

Format the project

With the help of treefmt, every single file in this repository can be formatted with a single command:

nix fmt
