For example, in Linux you can define your entire system&rsquo;s configuration (including the kernel, kernel modules, networking, filesystems, etc) in nix. For macOS, there is <a href=https://github.com/LnL7/nix-darwin class=link--external target=_blank rel=noreferrer>nix-darwin</a> that includes nix modules for configuring launchd, dock, and other preferences and services. You may also want to check out <a href=https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes class=link--external target=_blank rel=noreferrer>Nix Flakes</a>: a more recent feature that allows you declare dependencies, and have them automatically pinned and hashed in <code>flake.lock</code>, similar to that of many modern package managers.</p><h2 id=wrapping-up>Wrapping up<a href=#wrapping-up class=post-heading__anchor aria-hidden=true>#</a></h2><p>The title of this post is slightly misleading, since it&rsquo;s possible to retain some of your dotfiles and have them intermingle with home-manager by including them alongside nix. The idea of defining user configuration using nix can provide a clean way to maintain your configuration, and allow it to be portable across platforms. Is it worth the effort to migrate away from shell scripts and dotfiles? I&rsquo;d say so.</p><p>You can find my nix config <a href=https://github.com/davegallant/nix-config class=link--external target=_blank rel=noreferrer>here</a>.</p></div><script type=text/javascript src=https://storage.ko-fi.com/cdn/widget/Widget_2.js></script><script type=text/javascript>kofiwidget2.init("Buy me a coffee","#32344a","F1F2S4LWI"),kofiwidget2.draw()</script><br><br><section id=comments class=comments><div class='container sep-before'><div class=comments><script>let theme="dark-blue",script=document.createElement("script");script.src="https://utteranc.es/client.js",script.setAttribute("repo","davegallant/site"),script.setAttribute("issue-term","pathname"),script.setAttribute("theme",theme),script.setAttribute("crossorigin","anonymous"),script.setAttribute("async",""),document.querySelector("div.comments").innerHTML="",document.querySelector("div.comments").appendChild(script)</script></div></div></section></article></div><div class=sidebar></div></main><footer><div class=copyright>Dave Gallant</div></footer><script src=/js/main.c26c1b7b76f4923d8125720886ede9ca08bfe20b924683914ba4c1c35d53667c6c2d764f5482d3860d36b9e58a50255bc22a03ff145555979852c5ec74f15e51.js></script><script src=/js/flexsearch.18abaa87b7852f416bfbb3bb9ead09f8de9d817adc41459b551a1a877b8993fe0f3ab8c4245cf3d8775cc18ef02bbfce8dffaa2d73c82583eca904c94d732ef3.js></script><script defer src=https://static.cloudflareinsights.com/beacon.min.js data-cf-beacon='{"token": "b96799f53f9940dca6f660e6052ba009"}'></script><script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-V8WJDERTX9"></script><script>var doNotTrack=!1;if(!doNotTrack){window.dataLayer=window.dataLayer||[];function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments)}gtag("js",new Date),gtag("config","G-V8WJDERTX9",{anonymize_ip:!1})}</script></div></body></html>

 In the longer term, migrating my local workflows to aws-vault seems like a more secure solution.</description></item></channel></rss>
