Note

Welcome!

This is a simplified branch of my Nix configuration. For complete documentation, setup details, ricing, and advanced configurations (impermanence, disko, secure boot), check out the OG Branch.

gdots + cdots

My NixOS/Nix Config built using flakes. I've used Flake-Parts to modularize the config. Hyprland + Waybar Setup Yabai/Aerospace on Darwin

Quick Install

Prerequisites

1. Connect to the internet

   • The ISO includes NetworkManager, so you can use nmtui to connect to WiFi

2. Get the disko configuration

   # Replace <hostname> with your target hostname (e.g., mach, vm, jp-mbp)
   nix eval github:niksingh710/ndots#disko.partition \
     --apply 'b: builtins.fromJSON (builtins.toJSON (b { device = "/dev/nvme0n1"; ssdOptions = []; }))' \
     --impure > disko-config.nix

3. Partition the disk

   sudo disko --mode destroy,format,mount --yes-wipe-all-disks ./disko-config.nix

4. Install the system

   sudo nixos-install --no-root-passwd --root /mnt --flake github:niksingh710/ndots#<hostname>

For general instructions, troubleshooting, and detailed setup information, see the OG Branch.

Preview

🖥️ Current Setup Previews

Linux (CLI Mode)

My current setup is fully CLI-based, accessed via Tailscale.

You can find more UI previews in my old repository: gdots or in my Hacky issue

Colors are adapted from the wallpapers

• For Telegram I have ported walogram theme generator for my stylix config.

I’ve used Stylix for theming.

Check out my favorite color schemes on base16.

Darwin (Yabai)

On Darwin systems (MacBook), I use Yabai for window management.

📦 Build ISO

nix build .#iso

The ISO will be available in result/iso.

🛠️ Flake Parts

This configuration uses Flake-Parts to modularize the setup. Check the parts/ directory for:

• disko/ - Disk partitioning configurations
• iso/ - ISO builder configurations
