Template

On May 23rd, NixOS 25.05 was officially released ( nixos.org/blog/announcements/2025/nixos-2505/), making version 24.11 deprecated.

Two months later, I’ve managed to update my NixOS configuration files to incorporate the Disko “tool.” For anyone who missed my previous post: I recently came back to NixOS and spent some time studying and developing my personal configuration files, using the official manual, YouTube videos, and GitHub repos from other users as references. Seeing how useful those examples were inspired me to publish my own. I’ve structured these files to fit my needs, intentionally without using Flakes or Home Manager, to keep everything as simple as possible. Then I shared them as a “template” in my repo Another NixOS Configurations Template. ...

Returning to Linux as my daily operating system, I wanted something stable, secure, and easily replicable – allowing me to get a workstation up & running in the shortest time possible from a fresh HDD. I also needed an OS that could handle client machines in a business context, replicating the same environment except for user-specific details. If NixOS came to mind while reading, keep going. I first tried NixOS a couple of years ago, then left it for Fedora due to time constraints. Since late December, I’ve come back to it, focusing on dotfiles and configuration. I consulted the official manual, watched some YouTube videos, and examined various GitHub repos from other users – their examples inspired me to publish my own approach. ...
