Applications
Electron and Chromium
As of NixOS 22.05 ("Quokka"), you can enable Ozone Wayland support in Chromium and Electron based applications by setting the environment variable NIXOS_OZONE_WL=1
. For example, in a configuration.nix
:
environment.sessionVariables.NIXOS_OZONE_WL = "1";
This allows these applications to run without Xwayland.
