Line 10:

The [https://nixos.org/nix/manual/#chap-installation installation section of the Nix manual] describes how to install Nix from binary or source on Linux and Mac systems for a user with root privileges; it is easiest to install Nix for a single user, but steps are also included for setting up a multiuser installation. For an extensive guide on various methods for installing Nix - including how to install Nix without root privileges - see the [[Nix Installation Guide]].

=== Configuration ===

=== Declarative Configuration ===

Nix ~~allows~~ the ~~user~~ to ~~config~~

Support for declarative configuration in Nix is limited, and the solutions are somewhat fragmented. The only only configuration file officially associated with Nix is <code>/etc/nix/nix.conf</code>, which defines a number of settings relating to how Nix builds expressions and maintains the store. Details on the available options are found in the [[https://nixos.org/nix/manual/#sec-conf-file|nix.conf section of the manual]].
