treewide: refactor structure 
I have decided to refactor the entire structure of my repository, as the
old one was getting quite cluttered and I needed something that made
more sense. I've decided to go with the following, which will be
explained in the README when I find the time to do it. The gist of it
is:
- Put everything shared into its shared directory
- Rewrite the theme module (now style) to be more split, as it is
  theming a lot of different apps
- Merge nixos and home-manager configurations back into a singular
  config directory

Thanks a lot to llakala for the massive help she was with my Nix code.

    treewide: split up options from theming module, rename to style

    As an initial step towards refactoring the theming module, the options
    have been split up from the configuration itself. This will allow to
    find available options quicker, and separate concerns nicely. It was
    also renamed to style, to avoid confusion with its own options (eg.
    gtk.theme).

My NixOS configurations, using flakes.

</> Software I use

Additionally using a lot of other software you can find in the configuration files.

🛠️ Structure

Name Description
assets Resources used throughout the system (images etc.)
config System configuration (separated between NixOS / home-manager)
hosts Host-specific
lib Helper functions
shared Re-used components (internal modules, custom derivations)

My configuration is structured based on the following principles:

  1. Hosts should be the main entry points and outputs.
  2. Abstractions should be avoided as much as possible.
  3. Setting up theming should be as simple as changing one or two options.

The main configuration can be found in config, which declares most of my programs, with re-usable modules and derivations in shared, to provide a way to globally set themes, usernames and more.

My hosts can then pick and choose the programs and configurations that they need from the other directories. If the need arises for a more modular setup for a specific piece of software (ie. having different flavors of Firefox per host), I will write a custom module for it. This helps to avoid unnecessarily abstracting my configuration, as I don't find it necessary for the most part, and I would also like it to remain as simple as possible.

👥 Credits

People / repositories I have copied / learned from:

  • fufexan/dotfiles for the configuration structure

  • jacekpoz/nixos for learning how NixOS modules work

  • sodiboo for helping me a whole lot with Niri-specific issues

  • llakala for being very thorough and helpful when cleaning up my code and general structure.

    Some bits have also been borrowed from within the configuration, and credit has been given where its due.
