Use NixOS Without Coding

Overview

(Work in Progress)

Nix-Gui

Make NixOS usable for non-technical users through a settings / package management GUI.

screenshots/historical_2021_06_23.gif

Motives

The declarative nature of NixOS provides it the capability of being the most user friendly linux distro. No more editing dotfiles, /etc files, manually writing timers, services, running commands to manage and create users and groups, etc. NixOS integrates all of that into a declarative system, and this project integrates NixOS’ declarative system into a GUI.

Serve Users Unfamiliar with or Learning Nix

Nix-Gui is a configuration management tool designed for those who haven’t mastered the (arguably difficult) nix language. It is also an attempt to replicate the ease of use of popular configuration systems including

  • Ubuntu’s Unity System Settings
  • Mint’s Cinnimon Settings
  • Synaptic Package Manager

Nix-Gui is designed to gradually and comfortably teach users about the mechanics of the nix language and nixpkgs.

Serve as an Effective System Management Tool for Experienced Users

At the most advanced level, and once feature parity has been achieved. Power users should be capable of changing system configuration, creating system ISOs, deploying systems to the cloud, etc in Nix-Gui more intelligibly and faster than through their traditional means of writing a nix module.

Serve Mobile Users

An additional motive for this project is to enable system configuration for mobile devices without having to type code on your phone.
