Homelabs

Finally got around to booting up my new Mac Mini.

First thing I did was figure out how to install Nix, nix-darwin and pkgs.code-cursor from nixpkgs.

Now I have my Nix Flake file opened up in Cursor and I’m asking Claude how to set up all the apps and build tools and IDEs I need so I never have to manually download anything ever again.

Ideally. So far I’m finding that not all the apps I want to use actually have a working nixpkgs configuration so I have to fall back to the homebrew manager built into nix-darwin.
