All GUI applications will be handled by homebrew and some brews or CLI tools. The more stable and maintained CLI tools are installed via nixpkgs. +## Installation +1. Clone this repo onto the machine (probably fastest via usb) or install `tea` seperatly and run `tea clone https://git.briannelson.dev/brian/nix-darwin.git` +2. `cd` into the repo +3. Run `./install.sh` this will run a bash script that handles all of the installation of nix, file renaming and copying the files to the correct directory. + ## Homebrew I like using homebrew as my package manager for most apps as its really easy and convienent to run `brew upgrade` to update all apps in 1 go. I love nix for many other reasons but some of the packages on the stable branch aren't always up-to-date and take a while to update.
