## My NixOS Flake ### Philosophy > [!TODO] My philosophy has kinda changed since the beginning ###### Repo Structure Modules are organised into groups (ie "Core"), from here a module is structured as either: 1. a single `.nix` file (ie bluetooth.nix). I do this when I won't implement an alternative 2. a directory (ie `sound`) containing a set of alternative implementations and a `default.nix` that simply imports one of the implementations. For the `sound` example I currently have it structured to default to `pipewire.nix`. I haven't made alternatives yet but the idea is that it is HIGHLY likely I do in future. ### TODO There are a lot of commented `# TODO: ...` items in this repository. All (most) of my commented directives can be found via this pattern: ```sh grep -rnE '^\s*(//|#)\s*[A-Z]*:\s*.+$' --exclude-dir=.git 2>/dev/null ``` ### Random Explanation of Fonts There are four types of fonts (to my knowledge at least): 1. serif (funny squigles / small elegant strokes included) 2. sans-serif (meaning "without serifs") 3. monospace (all glyphs are of a uniform size) 4. emoji (cute lil faces) Fun fact: on Android, the emojis you are seeing are part of the noto-emoji font :) For finding a font for programming I highly recommend trying https://www.codingfont.com/ ### Links #### Inspiration ##### Explaining my Vision with r/unixporn posts I want the side panel from https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/12wpvyf/hyprland_eww_is_all_i_need/ but not the colour scheme and I'm 50/50 on the bar being on th eleft side lol. Also I love the volume bar on the right! https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/12uy6q6/hyprland_first_time_trying_a_wm_ended_up/ I love love love their rofi theme, everything else is eh (except the background switching is cool) https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/1avnfjn/hyprland_animations_theme_generation_settings/ I love their settings apps https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/u7vgej/desktop_endeavouros_gnome_42/ I like to imagine they have the ability to have nothing but apps on their screen (like a do not disturb / focus mode) https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/xkvmhy/hyprland_dreamy/ Their window decorations and bar are great, also being able to hide everything upwards is so cool https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/vkcasz/i3gaps_i_prefer_light_mode/ If their colour scheme was a little less white I'd love it but overall one of my favourites every ##### Other Inspiring Shtuff 1. https://github.com/sabrehagen/desktop-environment #### Wallpaper Sources 1. https://www.wallpaperflare.com/ 2. https://alphacoders.com especially this one person: https://alphacoders.com/users/profile/69089/robokoboto and also the lofi category: https://alphacoders.com/lofi #### Teach Yourself Nix 1. https://github.com/XNM1/linux-nixos-hyprland-config-dotfiles) Really good security oriented NixOS stuff 2. https://jade.fyi/blog/flakes-arent-real/ Interesting blog post on using flakes #### Credits 1. https://github.com/XNM1/linux-nixos-hyprland-config-dotfiles The simplicity of their layout is amazing, was really good to pick out small modules and learn how something works / is configured. 2. https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-starter-configs Really great starter config for learning how parts interact and how to generally structure flakes 3. https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Fonts Wiki page explaining how to install fonts and nerd fonts on NixOS 4. https://github.com/adi1090x/rofi For the Rofi theme 5. https://github.com/zDyanTB/HyprNova For the really cool hyprlock theme
