What

This is a repository containing a collection of Nix flakes, which can be used as templates for your projects.

Some templates can be used without Nix.

Only the templates located under ./nix are Nix flakes

How

Nix CLI

First, you need Nix installed. You can use either one of the following installers:

• Official
• Determinate systems

To learn how to use Nix to apply these templates, see nix flake new and nix flake init.

Templates in this repository are divided into subdirectories, which can be referenced as nested objects in Nix. For example, to use the template located at ./nix/empty, you can run

nix flake init --template github:grimerssy/flakes#nix.empty

Manual

Nix helps with copying the files, but some templates can still be used without it. If you don't have Nix installed, you can use cp command or your file manager to copy.

cp -r /path/to/template/* .
