This is a repository that implements liminalOS, my personal Linux distribution based on [NixOS](https://nixos.org/).
## Installation guide
TBD. May use `deploy-rs` or the in-house [dartgun](https://github.com/youwen5/dartgun) tool for easy deployment.
## FAQ
### This looks like a collection of NixOS configuration files and modules. What makes it a distinct distribution?
Most Linux[^1] users will agree that any self-respecting distribution must include at least the following: installer, package manager, and some set of default packages. Therefore, anything that implements the aforementioned items must also be a Linux distribution.
liminalOS comes with the Nix package manager (nothing says you need _a unique_ package manager. Ubuntu and Debian are distinct distributions yet both use `apt`), the Hyprland desktop environment as well as various applications installed by default, and [the means to generate an installer](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Creating_a_NixOS_live_CD). Therefore, liminalOS is a Linux distribution. QED.[^2]
### Should I actually install this?
No.
[^1]: also known as GNU/Linux, GNU+Linux, Freedesktop/systemd/musl/busybox Linux, Linux+friends, etc
[^2]: disclaimer: this is unfortunately not actually how the converse works. $A \implies B$ does not necessarily imply $B \implies A$. I hope this satiates the rigor-hungry mathematicians reading.
