You don't really fully specify most things. A complete working NixOS config with a few core utilities is like 50 lines without comments. Here is my main workstation's full definition: https://git.sr.ht/~chiefnoah/nixos/tree

It's split up into multiple files, but even the total combination is not that much. If you let Nix take over your system (ie. NixOS) it moves out from underneath you in a completely reproduceable and revertable way so you can almost always just... run the equivalent of a dist-upgrade daily and get on with your life because you're 1 command away from undoing it all.

You'll obviously have more the more you customize things, but for the most part its services.<service>.enabled = true;. The defaults are usually good enough IME.

Your repo is very helpful. Really great comments. It's too bad that I'm so busy. The Nix sirens are certainly calling, but I'll have to plug my ears for now.
