On NixOS, Nix can be configured using the [https://search.nixos.org/options?query=nix. <code>nix</code> option].

Standalone Nix is configured through <code>nix.conf</code> (usually found in <code>/etc/nix/</code>)~~, which defines a number of settings relating to evaluation, builds, garbage collection, sandboxing, and user permissions~~. Details on the available options are [https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/conf-file found in the Nix reference manual].

~~Even further configuration is possible with~~ [[Home Manager]] ~~to manage~~ declarative environments for a single user. For system-wide configuration ~~on Linux~~, you can use [https://github.com/numtide/system-manager System Manager]~~. For system-wide configuration~~ on ~~macOS,~~ [https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin nix-darwin] ~~is the preferred solution~~.

You can also configure Nix using [[Home Manager]], which manages declarative environments for a single user. For system-wide configuration, you can use [https://github.com/numtide/system-manager System Manager] on Linux and [https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin nix-darwin] on macOS.
