nix-configs

Get started

Clone and:

ln -s ~/code/github.com/matoous/nix-home ~/.config/home-manager

Home manager can't set default user shell. After install one needs to manually add fish shell to echo '/Users/matousdzivjak/.nix-profile/bin/fish' >> /etc/shells and then update the current users default shell using chsh -s /Users/matousdzivjak/.nix-profile/bin/fish.
