crocuda.nixos

...is a set of nixos modules which provide trivial configuration for paranoids and hypocondriacs.

Motivations

This project aim is to provide a well-documented NixOs base configuration with:

• security and privacy.
• keyboard first apps (qwerty, colemak-dh).

It is devided in modules that can be cherry picked or copy/pasted and modified at your will.

Configuration directory architecture

This flake makes a heavy use of home-merger to keep config files in separate dotfiles in their original formats, and keep a consistent file tree.

Installation and Usage (Flake)

Setting up a user is sufficient to get you up and running on a fresh nixos installation.

Enable the software you whish to use via the module options and you are done. Refer to default.nix for the list of all available options.

# crocuda.nix
{
  config,
  pkgs,
  inputs,
  ...
}: {
  crocuda = {
    users = ["anon"];

    keyboard.layout = "colemak-dh";

    base.enable = true;

    # Graphical
    wm.hyprland.enable = true;

    # Terminal stuffs
    terminal = {
      shell = {
        fish.enable = true;
      };
      editor = {
        nvchad.enable = true;
        vim.enable = true;
      };
      file_manager = {
        yazi.enable = true;
      };
    };

    browser = {
      firefox.enable = true;
      searxng.enable = true;
      i2p.enable = true;
      tor.enable = true;
    };

    finance = {
      monero.enable = false;
      darkfi.enable = false;
    };
  };
}

Then import the module and its configuration file from your flake.nix.

# flake.nix
nixosConfigurations = {
  # CrocudaVM config
  my_machine = pkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
    specialArgs = {inherit inputs;};
    modules = [
        # Import the module
        crocuda.nixosModules.default
        # Import your configuration for this module
        ./crocuda.nix
    ];
  };
};
