NixOS & Home Manager configuration files

This repository contains my development environment that I use for school and work. Feel free to copy my dotfiles or leave suggestions!

🎨 Colour Scheme • Catppuccin

The common theme across all my applications! I use the Mocha flavour.

📝 Editor • Neovim

A sweet command-based editor that speeds up coding. Even if you don't want to use Neovim, I recommend getting a Vim bindings plugin in an editor like VSCode. All of my config for Neovim is under src/nvim. I use lazy.nvim to manage plugins.

Awesome plugins ✨

• nvim-treesitter: Improved syntax highlighting
• nvim-cmp: Code completion engine
• lspsaga.nvim: Improved LSP commands
• conform.nvim & nvim-lint: Formatting and linting
• telescope.nvim: Fast fuzzy finder (No directory trees here!)
• harpoon: Quick navigation
• lualine.nvim & bufferline.nvim: Top and bottom lines UI
• dashboard-nvim: Startup page
• nvim-material-icon: Icon set for files
• presence.nvim: Discord rich presence to flex

💾 Terminal • Ghostty

I use fish to make using the CLI easier. Starship gives a clean look to the prompt!

🪟 Tiling Compositor • niri

Tiling windows means I can navigate quickly and effortlessly to what I need. I recommend compiling a list of keybinds that you find easy to remember and use. I previously used XMonad and Hyprland.

🛠️ Managing dotfiles • Home Manager

I dislike having a system that requires mental gymnastics to understand. Home Manager allows for a declarative approach to installing and configuring software. For instance, all the packages on my system are in home.packages, so I can know what's installed at a glance. Most of my setup can be found in home.nix!
