[[NixOS]]は、幅広い用途に適した汎用性の高いOSです。

このページでは、NixOSをメインのデスクトップ環境として実機またはVM上で実行したいユーザーを対象としています。

また、[[NixOS friendly hosters|クラウド]]環境やサーバーインフラとしてNixOSを導入する場合でも、より広範な[[Nix ecosystem|Nixエコシステム]]を理解するにはここで紹介する概念と実践は役立つでしょう。

== インストール ==

インストールするには、[[NixOS Installation Guide|NixOSインストールガイド]]を参照して下さい。

デスクトップインストールをする場合は、[[:Category:Desktop environment|デスクトップ環境]]、[[:Category:Web Browser|ウェブブラウザ]]、その他の[[:Category:Applications|GUIアプリケーション]]などの日常的に使用するアプリケーションに必要となるディスク用量として、少なくとも30GiBの空き容量を確保しておくことを推奨します。

必要最低限の機能を備えたセットアップであれば、15GiBで十分でしょう。

== 構成の管理 ==

NixOS ~~can~~ be ~~used for many purposes~~. ~~If you want to use it as a primary desktop operating~~ system ~~for your daily use (either on bare metal or as a [https:~~//~~twitter~~.~~com~~/~~mitchellh/status/1346136404682625024 secondary VM]), this page is for you~~. Even if your ambitions are to use NixOS in the cloud or on specially configured servers, you may want to start with the lessons outlined here in order to get more generally familiar with the Nix ecosystem.

As described in the [[Overview of the NixOS Linux distribution#Declarative Configuration]], NixOS is designed to be configured declaratively. This means the entire system configuration, including installed packages, system services, kernel parameters, and user accounts is defined in configuration files, typically in <code>/etc/nixos/configuration.nix</code>. These settings can then be applied consistently and reproducibly across machines.

</div>

<~~span id~~="~~Installation~~"></~~span~~>

== ~~インストール~~ ==

The process for managing your configuration is documented in the {{NixOS Manual|name=NixOS official manual|anchor=#ch-configuration}}.

</div>

=== System Configuration ===

</div>

</div>

The primary configuration file, <code>/etc/nixos/configuration.nix</code>, defines system-wide settings. This includes options like enabling services, managing system users, setting hardware options, and specifying installed packages. Changes are applied with:

</div>

# nixos-rebuild switch

</syntaxhighlight>

</div>

=== User configuration with Home Manager ===

</div>

For managing per-user configurations such as application preferences, command-line tools, and dotfiles, [[Home Manager]] provides a convenient, declarative approach. It allows users to define which programs should be installed and how they should be configured, without needing to include those settings in the system-wide [https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#sec-changing-config configuration.nix].

</div>

Home Manager can be used independently of the system configuration and works with both traditional setups and newer [[Flakes]]-based configurations.

</div>

=== ~~Wiki method~~ ===

=== With Flakes ===

</div>

~~If you prefer reading~~, ~~see~~ [[~~NixOS Installation Guide~~]] to ~~get started. For a well presented video option~~, ~~see video guide section immediately below. Keep in mind that, for~~ a ~~desktop installation, you will probably want~~ to ~~make sure you start with at least 30 GiB of available disk space to allow for the desktop environments (e.g. GNOME, KDE, or XFCE), browsers (e.g. Firefox),~~ and ~~other graphical applications (e.g. VSCode) that would be typical of daily use. 15 GiB might be enough in a pinch for a fairly bare-bones setup~~.

For users looking for a more streamlined and reproducible way to manage NixOS configurations, the [[Flakes]] feature has been gaining popularity within the community. While Flakes introduce some new concepts compared to traditional workflows, many users find them a convenient and organized approach to managing system and development configurations.

</div>

~~=== Video guide ===~~

Refer to [[NixOS system configuration#Defining NixOS as a flake]] for details on getting started.

</div>

For a visual guide, see [[Wil T Nix Guides]]. The [[Wil_T_Nix_Guides#NixOS_Installation_Guide|second video]] is a concise installation guide. This 8-part series, produced in early 2021, also covers all the basics of using NixOS as a desktop and configuring it to your liking.

== Beyond initial setup ==

</div>

~~== Managing~~ your configuration ==

Once your basic NixOS installation is complete and functional, you can further customize your system with a variety of optional configurations tailored for desktop use. For a list of recommended initial system configurations, see [[NixOS Installation Guide#NixOS configuration]].

</div>

~~It is possible to manage your entire~~ configuration ~~using the methods documented in the [https~~://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/index.html NixOS official manual]. However, most community members who use NixOS on the desktop prefer to manage their user configurations (e.g. "dotfiles") using [[Home Manager]] (citation needed). Home Manager is a user oriented tool for declaring what you want installed and how you want it configured, and thus would be used in lieu of most settings you would otherwise put into a [https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#sec-changing-config configuration.nix] or through [[FAQ#How_can_I_manage_software_with_nix-env_like_with_configuration.nix.3F|nix-env]]

Common configuration areas include:

</div>

=== ~~Video guide~~ ===

==== Desktop Environments ====

</div>

~~Wil T's guides are about an even mix of:~~

Install and configure full-featured environments such as [[GNOME]], [[KDE Plasma]], or [[Xfce]].

~~# Hands~~-~~on bootstrapping to get to being able to very capably manage your system using Home Manager, git versioning, and eventually Flakes.~~

~~# Conceptual overviews and general exposition of the Nix ecosystem~~, ~~community~~, ~~and available resources~~.

</div>

~~The~~ [[~~Wil_T_Nix_Guides#NixOS_Installation_Guide|second video~~]]~~, starting from about 27 minutes in, is also an introduction to and guide to setting up Home Manager~~.

See [[:Category:Desktop environment]] for a full list.

</div>

== ~~Modularizing your configuration~~ ==

==== Window Managers ====

</div>

~~=== With NixOS Modules ===~~

Set up lightweight or tiling window managers like [[i3]], [[Sway]], [[Hyprland]], or [[xmonad]].

</div>

~~configuration.nix is an instance of a~~ [[~~NixOS modules|NixOS module~~]]~~, which makes it easy to break your configuration into several files~~. ~~Modules can:~~

See [[:Category:Window managers]] for a full list.

</div>

* Import other modules

==== Display Managers (Login Managers) ====

* Declare new options

</div>

* Provide values for options (~~this is what most of your default configuration.nix does~~)

* Reference option values from other modules (via the <~~code~~>~~config~~<~~/code~~> ~~attribute passed to all modules)~~

Configure graphical session managers such as [[Gnome|GDM]], [[KDE|SDDM]], or [[LightDM]].

</div>

As long as you declare options for any values you want to share between modules, you can divide your configuration however you like into files that get imported, directly or transitively, by your root configuration.nix file. You can also import modules from remote sources, using functions like <code>builtins.fetchTarball</code>. See the [[NixOS modules|wiki page]] or the [https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#sec-writing-modules NixOS manual] for more information.

==== Audio Setup ====

</div>

~~=== With Flakes ===~~

Enable and configure [[:Category:Audio|audio]] systems like [[PipeWire]], [[PulseAudio]], or [[ALSA]].

</div>

If you want a more composable<sup>[citation needed]</sup> NixOS configuration setup, the still-experimental [[Flakes]] feature is causing a lot of excitement in the community. Managing flakes requires a good basic understanding and some existing hands on experience with the Nix ecosystem.

==== Network Management ====

</div>

~~==== Video guide ====~~

Use tools such as [[NetworkManager]] or [[systemd-networkd]] for managing [[Networking|network]] connections.

</div>

Videos [[Wil_T_Nix_Guides#Intro_to_Flakes|seven]] and [[Wil_T_Nix_Guides#Moving_NixOS_System_Configuration_into_a_Flake|eight]] of Wil T's original 8-part series are a good overview of what Flakes enable and how to get started with them.

==== Bluetooth Support ====

</div>

~~== Beyond initial setup ==~~

Set up [[Bluetooth]] with blueman or other management tools.

</div>

~~After you are familiar with the Nix ecosystem and have a functional desktop install of NixOS, you will likely be interested in customizations and more detailed setup.~~

==== Power Management ====

</div>

~~=== Learn by example ===~~

Configure [[laptop]] [[Power Management|battery management]], suspend, and hibernation with tools like [[Laptop#tlp|tlp]] or [[systemd]] services.

</div>

~~If you are comfortable managing your system through a git repo using flakes, then there are many repositories you can learn from now!~~

==== Printing and Scanning ====

</div>

~~Check out~~ [[~~Comparison of NixOS setups~~]] for ~~a table comparing some popular choices~~.

Enable [[Cups]] for printer support and tools like Sane for [[Scanners|scanning]] devices.

</div>
