    When it comes to NixOS, you are my "numero uno" source. The details and the order in which you present them is why a value your content. Please, any more advance video with Hyprland are welcome, specially around configuring the waybar (or any other bar). Another hyprland video could be using EWW instead of the bar. That is one that I have not seen in TH-cam. The content of this video, it took me approximately 10 days (and 5-7 sources) to learn everything that you put together in this comprehendible video. Please keep making NixOs and Hyprland videos.

I love how you cover the possibilities each user can experience, which is really hard on a written format, because most sites tell you how to do it, and if you have an issue, you need to find a specific page or site for that issue, which takes a lot of time. keep up the good work!

    Nice video.
    I would personally love to have a more detailed config video. After following this video I got to the same spot, where Hyprland is working and Waybar is running. But the workspace indicators do not work at all. It's just blank. I have been trying to patch it in my nix config, messing around with settings and it never shows up. So knowing how to get the workspace indicators, maybe lock screen, power management (sleep and screen blank), basically a series of tutorials on getting a Hyperland config to work like a DE would be great.

    I think there are quite a few good advanced videos on how to configure hyprland, please focus on NixOS, there are little to none good deep tutorials and you are exceptionally good in this. I just wondered why you didn't mention the home manager for the hyprland configuration, maybe you wanted to keep things simple. I have to admit, the whole legacy to flake migration puts me off a little, so it would be outstanding to me if you could explain transitions from configuration.nix to flake, especially since there are quite a few guides on the internet that show the old legacy way of doing things.

    With your neovim video as well as this one, you're using the .config files to manage your configuration. Is this the best way to do this or is there a more NixOS native way of handling these things? I had trouble getting Mason working with neovim in nixos for example because the package management conflicts with nix somehow. Awesome videos btw! Thank you so much.

    • @vimjoyer
      @vimjoyer  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I highly recommend you to use devshells rather than Mason on NixOS. Just put JavaScript LSP into JavaScript devshell and python LSP into python devshell. Everything separated, clean and efficient.
      Some LSPs from Mason work, but they usually require you to have npm, gcc and some other dependencies installed

Two of those are waybar and the desktop portal, but the dep for wlroots may also be different. Depending on the status of current nixpkgs using the standard nixos module may lead to lack of features and/or compatibility issues. I'm using upstream as a flake input, which is more cutting edge and better integrated with its specific dependencies, at the cost of a bit more complexity. It is generally smooth, though YMMV.

      Not being compliant with FHS is one of it's features, because you can make a FHS environment in a derivation for a specific package, and it is actually how most proprietary packages in nixpkgs work. You can even make a super simple nix-shell that would put you in one if you want, so it's not an issue at all. I will probably make a video about cool features like envfs option.

      @@vimjoyer Looks nice! I'm leaning towards a setup like this for a daily driver, maybe with arch instead of NixOs just to avoid the mental overhead of learning too many new things at once.
      One thing I couldn't find on my hyprland VM was for a way to set up named tabbed groups (similar to Sway or Cosmic window stacks), I'll try to find something.

    Hello, can you tell me why, when I open a window through rofi, it doesn't open fullscreen like when I open the terminal through the hyprland bind? And I can't find where I can tweak the rofi.config Thx

    • @vimjoyer
      @vimjoyer  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Very strange, I've never had this issue. You can tweak rofi's config the same way you do on any other distro, or using home-manager.

    2 Questions;
    Apparently you can't run any binaries not from the nix repos on nixos? (or just not installed through nix in general) is there any way to run stuff like compiled but not installed apps / appimages?
    is there an easy way to install dev packages e.g. sudo apt install build-essential or do i have to add each individaully to the nix file

      unix.stackexchange.com/questions/522822/different-methods-to-run-a-non-nixos-executable-on-nixos - here is a huge list of methods to run a non-nixos executable on Nixos. I might make a video version of this later.
      Yes, you can use other package managers on nixos.

      @@vimjoyer wut about dev packages too, is there just a list i chuck into the nix file to get everything build essentail or base-devel would normally give or is there groups of packages or something else entirely? also when you say other package manages do you mean actual managers like apt / pacman / dnf (seems against reproducability? unless it's distrobox i guess) or is it adding other nix repos

      @@aeases- usually, you can find all of the essential packages for specific language on NixOS wiki. nixos.wiki/wiki/Node.js - JavaScript. If you can't find some node packages in nixpkgs, you will, unfortunately, have to package them yourself of install with npm.
      Edit: you shouldn't install other package managers packages as root.
