Software employed

Software used to build Igloo and used within my systems

Nix stuff

• Nix Flakes to structure the configurations
• Flake Parts to modularize even more the flake structure
• Home Manager to manage the user environment
• pre-commit-hooks.nix to integrate pre-commit hooks in the Nix flake
• NixOS on WSL for running NixOS on WSL
• comma and nix-index database to run software without installing it
• NixVim to configure Neovim using Nix
• NixNeovimPlugins to use Neovim plugins not available yet in nixpkgs
• NixOS Visual Studio Code server-env-setup to connect to VS Code server running inside NixOS-WSL
• agenix from managing age-encrypted secrets from NixOS and Home Manager

Shell environment

• direnv for loading/deloading development environments depending on the current directory
• Starship because having a beautiful prompt is vital
• fzf because fuzzy finders change your life
• zoxide because cd-ing is boring and z is a fast boy
• pet to remember the juiciest commands
• Atuin to have a shell history on steroids

Misc

• Sourcegraph to scavenge the entire web for Nix snippets using file:\.nix <query>
