> DevOS requires the [flakes][flakes] feature available via an _experimental_
|
|

|

|
|

# Introduction
|
|
DevOS grants a simple way to use, deploy and manage [NixOS][nixos] systems for
|
|
personal and productive use. A sane repository structure is provided,
|
|
integrating several popular projects like [home-manager][home-manager],
|
|
[devshell][devshell], and [more](./doc/integrations).
|
|
|
|
Striving for ___nix first™___ solutions with unobstrusive implementations,
|
|
a [flake centric][flake-doc] approach is taken for useful conveniences such as
|
|
[automatic source updates](./pkgs#automatic-source-updates).
|
|
|
|
Skip the indeterminate nature of other systems, _and_ the perceived
|
|
tedium of bootstrapping Nix. It's easier than you think!
|
|
|
|
### Status: Alpha
|
|
A lot of the implementation is less than perfect, and huge
|
|
[redesigns](https://github.com/divnix/devos/issues/152) _will_ happen. There
|
|
are unstable versions (0._x_._x_) to help users keep track of changes and
|
|
progress.
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
Check out the [guide](https://devos.divnix.com/doc/start) to get up and running.
|
|
|
|
## In the Wild
|
|
The author maintains his own branch, so you can take inspiration, direction, or
|
|
make critical comments about the [code][please]. 😜
|
|
|
|
## Motivation
|
|
NixOS provides an amazing abstraction to manage our environment, but that new
|
|
power can sometimes bring feelings of overwhelm and confusion. Having a turing
|
|
complete system can easily lead to unlimited complexity if we do it wrong.
|
|
Instead, we should have a community consensus on how to manage a NixOS system
|
|
and its satellite projects, from which best practices can evolve.
|
|
|
|
___The future is declarative! 🎉___
|
|
|
|
## Upstream
|
|
I'd love to see this in the nix-community should anyone believe its reached a
|
|
point of maturity to be generally useful, but I'm all for waiting until
|
|
1.0[#121](https://github.com/divnix/devos/issues/121) to save the cache work,
|
|
too.
|
|
|
|
## Community Profiles
|
|
There are two branches from which to choose: [core][core] and
|
|
[community][community]. The community branch builds on core and includes
|
|
several ready-made profiles for discretionary use.
|
|
|
|
Every package and NixOS profile declared in community is uploaded to
|
|
[cachix](./integrations/cachix.md), so everything provided is available
|
|
without building anything. This is especially useful for the packages that are
|
|
[overridden](./concepts/overrides.md) from master, as without the cache,
|
|
rebuilds are quite frequent.
