### To do on a new machine

- Install NixOS

- Clone this repo `git clone https://gitea.com/tasiaiso/nixos-config.git && cd nixos-onfig`

- `export HOSTNAME=<your-hostname> && mkdir hosts/$HOSTNAME && cd hosts/$HOSTNAME && touch configuration.nix`

- Fill out `configuration.nix`

- `sudo nixos-generate-config --show-hardware-config > hosts/$HOSTNAME/hardare-configuration.nix`

- `sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#$HOSTNAME`

#### git

generate an ssh key: `ssh-keygen -t ed25519`

add to ssh-agent: `ssh-add .ssh/id_ed25519`
