• Zsh - with powerlevel10k
• Eww - fancy widgets

Configurations

Systems (NixOS):

• zeph - laptop

Profiles (Home Manager):

• ben - desktop
• dev - minimal

Online Install

1. If Nix and Home Manager is installed and flakes are enabled, you can install a profile directly from GitHub.

home-manager switch --flake github:benvonh/.snowflake#<profile>

Local Install

1. Clone and enter the Nix environment.

git clone https://github.com/benvonh/.snowflake
cd ~/.snowflake
nix-shell

2. If you would like, create new NixOS and Home Manager configurations. Otherwise, skip to next step.

cp -rv ~/.snowflake/systems/zeph ~/.snowflake/systems/$HOSTNAME
cp -rv ~/.snowflake/profiles/ben ~/.snowflake/systems/$USER
nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config > ~/.snowflake/systems/$HOSTNAME/hardware.nix

3. Read and edit the flake. Main files of interest are:

• flake.nix
• systems/$HOSTNAME/default.nix
• systems/$HOSTNAME/share/**
• profiles/$USER/default.nix
• profiles/$USER/share/**

3. Switch to your NixOS and Home Manager configurations.

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake ~/.snowflake
home-manager switch --flake ~/.snowflake
