Installation Guide (for myself & those who are interested)

Generate image & boot We do this because the default one doesn't have all the utilities we want (e.g. disko).
- generate image nix build .#nixosConfigurations.installer.config.system.build.isoImage
- dd the image to a flash drive (remember to sync)
- boot off that flash drive
Format disk (DANGER)
- modify the disko file to point to the disk to be formatted

Installation (iirc the disko auto install has some issues)

# Are you sure the disko config has the right drive path?
disko -- -m disko ./disko.nix # format the drive

# optional for unknown hard ware
nixos-generate-config --no-filesystems --root /mnt --dir . # disko will take care of the file system configuration
# put the generated config in the right path and import it

nixos-install --flake .dotfiles#<hostname>
# profit

Layout

My dvorak french layout has been ported to linux using nix.

Misc utilities

cmus: My vim-like bindings and "fixes" for macOS, as well as a customized linux script that notify-sends the current playing song.

Theme

I have made a theme (a fork of Atom's one-light) where all my tools are visually unified. It's neovim part can be found here.

Notable shell scripts

All of these are written in fish script. Maybe it's not a good idea, but it's too late and I want good integration with fish anyway.

tmux-sessionizer: a fish script inspired by ThePrimeagen, allows jumping between different tmux sessions using fzf
tmux-last: toggle the last tmux session
c2r: clone repository to ~/repo/owner/name, where I can then attach to using sessionizer The sessionizer primitives starts with two underscores and are reused.

Have fun :)
