This is my personal NixOS configuration for my desktops and servers.
Important
I do not recommend anyone to use it since it is heavily personalised to my needs. However, the reason I share this repository is to simplify my deployments and allow others, especially new NixOS users, to explore different config structures to choose the best of all worlds.
After restructuring my config over and over again, I came up with the following structure, which works very well for me at the moment:
.
├── docs
│ └── documentation-related files, e.g. screenshots, ...
├── homeModules
│ └── home-manager modules for user-specific configurations (browsers, editors, shells, etc.)
├── machines
│ ├── orion
│ │ ├── home
│ │ └── nixos
│ ├── pollux
│ │ ├── home
│ │ └── nixos
│ └── vega
│ ├── home
│ └── nixos
├── nixosModules
│ └── system-level NixOS modules (networking, hardware, security, etc.)
├── presets
│ ├── desktop
│ │ ├── home
│ │ └── nixos
│ ├── laptop
│ │ ├── home
│ │ └── nixos
│ ├── server
│ │ ├── home
│ │ └── nixos
│ └── shared
│ ├── home
│ └── nixos
├── scripts
│ └── useful scripts
├── secrets
│ └── sops secret files
├── wallpapers
│ └── wallpapers used by desktop hosts
This NixOS configuration uses a flake-based approach with justfile commands for easy management:
# list all targets
just
# list available systems
just list
# build a specific system configuration
just build system
# switch to a specific system configuration
just switch system- Multiple machine configurations (desktop, laptop, server)
- Hyprland desktop environment with Catppuccin theme
- Secret management via sops-nix
- Structured modular configuration
- Home-Manager for user-level configurations
This configuration takes advantage of some other repositories and projects, including:
