Notably, NixOS automagically sets session variables that are required for fcitx5.

=== Add-ons Not Detected ===

~~Installing~~ fcitx5 using <code>environment.systemPackages</code> can interfere with add-on detection. Make sure to only add fcitx5 to your config as shown in [[Fcitx5#Setup | Setup]].

'''Do not''' install fcitx5 using <code>environment.systemPackages</code> can interfere with add-on detection. Make sure to only add fcitx5 to your config as shown in [[Fcitx5#Setup | Setup]].

=== Using Wayland ===

Set boolean <code>i18n.inputMethod.fcitx5.waylandFrontend</code> to true to suppress warnings about environment variables.
