Installing and notes

MacOS

Install Nix.

sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon

Build, and switch to the dotfiles

nix build ~/nix-darwin-dotfiles\#darwinConfigurations.shaunsingh-laptop.system --extra-experimental-features nix-command --extra-experimental-features flakes
./result/sw/bin/darwin-rebuild switch --flake .#shaunsingh-laptop

(note, --extra-experimental-features is only needed the first time around. After that the configuration will edit /etc/nix/nix.conf to enable flakes and nix-command by default)

Linux

Follow the nixos-apple-silicon guide to install asahi, uboot, and m1n1 to your machine. Reboot your machine into NixOS. Make sure to set a password for your user. Clone this repository and cd into it. Run the following commands. Don't worry if it takes a while, as it needs to build the kernel and certain features from source.

sudo nixos-rebuild boot --flake .#shaunsingh-laptop --extra-experimental-features nix-command --extra-experimental-features flakes
reboot

The system should reboot into nixOS and ask for your username and password, then autoboot into sway. You may optionally run the following command to free up space.

sudo nix-collect-garbage -d
