Quick Start

The only dependency is nix, so make sure you have it installed.

Get the Template

Here is a snippet that will get you the template without the git history:

nix-shell https://github.com/nrdxp/nixflk/archive/core.tar.gz -A shell \
  --run "flk get core"

cd flk

nix-shell

git init
git add .
git commit -m init

cachix use nrdxp

This will place you in a new folder named flk with git initialized, and a nix-shell that provides all the dependencies, including the unstable nix version required.

In addition, the binary cache is added for faster deployment.

Notes:

• You can change core to community in the call to flk get
• Flakes ignore files that have not been added to git, so be sure to stage new files before building the system.

Next Steps:

• Make installable ISO
• Already on NixOS
