Getting started on macOS

To get started on a bare macOS installation, first install Nix:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install

Launch a new shell. Then use Nix to switch to the macOS configuration:

sudo rm /etc/bashrc
sudo rm /etc/nix/nix.conf
nix \
    --extra-experimental-features flakes \
    --extra-experimental-features nix-command \
    run nix-darwin -- switch \
    --flake github:chrishrb/nix-dots#mw

Once installed, you can continue to update the macOS configuration:

nix run nix-darwin -- switch --flake "."
# or
darwin-rebuild switch --flake "."

Or format all files:

nix fmt

Important

Deactivate all Keyboard Shortcuts in the macOS settings under Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts. Otherwise some keybindings might not work.

Activate the German Programming Keyboard:

Open macOS System Settings -> Keyboard -> Text Input -> Edit -> click + -> click Deutsch - Programmierung -> click Add

Cleanup old generations

sudo nix-collect-garbage -d

Getting started on NixOS

Boot your machine with a live usb-stick and run

nix 
    --extra-experimental-features flakes \
    --extra-experimental-features nix-command \
    run "github:chrishrb/nix-dots#installer"

Caution

All disks are erased and NixOS is installed
