Line 43:

For example, the setting which controls the accent color of GNOME shell is located in the ''schema'' labeled <code>/org/gnome/desktop/interface/</code> which contains the ''key'' <code>accent-color</code> which accepts a GVariant ''value'' of type <code>enum</code> (one of <code>'blue'</code>, <code>'teal'</code>, <code>'green'</code>, etc)

NixOS and Home Manager both provide an interface for declarative configuration of dconf settings exposed in <code>programs.dconf</code> and <code>dconf</code> modules respectively~~. This option accepts an attribute set whose names are schemas whose paired value is another attribute set whose names are keys and paired values as GVariant values~~.

NixOS and Home Manager both provide an interface for declarative configuration of dconf settings exposed in <code>programs.dconf</code> and <code>dconf</code> modules respectively.

Going back to the previous example, to set the accent color of GNOME in a declarative manner in NixOS as well as mapping the keyboard's "caps lock" key to "ctrl" you would write:
