# Introduction
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Welcome to DevOS. This project is under construction as a rewrite of my current
|
||
|
|
NixOS configuration files available [here][old].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The goal is to make everything as general, modular and *maintainable* as possible
|
||
|
|
to encourage contributions. The ambitious end game is to create a central repository
|
||
|
|
of useful NixOS modules and device configurations which are more opinionated than
|
||
|
|
those found in [nixpkgs][nixpkgs], but are applicable/useful to the wider
|
||
|
|
[NixOS][NixOS] and [Linux][kernel] communities. The hope is to ease the transition
|
||
|
|
to NixOS and encourage adoption by allowing common hardware and software to be
|
||
|
|
automatically configured with sane defaults, enabling iteration instead of
|
||
|
|
starting from scratch with each new device.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This coupled with a strong notion of an *abstract* machine, e.g. `laptop.nix`
|
||
|
|
or `mobile.nix`. Will allow devices of all types to be up and running with
|
||
|
|
Linux "right out of the box"!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
No more weekends spent working out the kinks in `INSERT_DISTRO_OF_CHOICE`
|
||
|
|
on every machine aquiry/transition! Just pull in a database containing an
|
||
|
|
optimal/optimized NixOS "configuration.nix" for your specific hardware
|
||
|
|
and software. Then customize it to your needs and contribute back any
|
||
|
|
improvements!
