NixOS is pretty awesome :) For anyone trying to start with NixOS, I suggest trying it out on a small DigitalOcean server. Check out this[0] blog post on some hints how to install NixOS there. A big help is IMO to get a solid understanding about how nix itself works[1]. Also check out some existing `configuration.nix` files on GitHub. Just google for "github configuration.nix". This might give you some inspiration what you can do with the `configuration.nix`. If you have some trouble with customizing vim on NixOS/via nix, checkout this[2] blog post I wrote a month ago. Hope it helps :) [0] http://blog.tinco.nl/2016/02/05/nixos-on-digital-ocean.html http://blog.tinco.nl/2016/02/05/nixos-on-digital-ocean.html [1] https://nixos.org/nix/about.html https://nixos.org/nix/about.html [2] https://www.mpscholten.de/nixos/2016/04/11/setting-up-vim-on-nixos.html https://www.mpscholten.de/nixos/2016/04/11/setting-up-vim-on...
