Started to use #SystemManager from #numtide and I'm SO with this. 😎

I don't run #nixos. Yes. I still prefer #ubuntu or #popos. I like the distros and usually deviate their base to be anything anyhow. 😏

But that does not mean I like missing declaration magic. System manager lets me still do all the crazy things I normally do. Plus I get some guard on my system settings. 😅

System Manager

Declarative system management for any Linux machine using Nix.

@zeab how does this compare to traditional home-manager?

@goeranh complimentary actually! I use home manager for my user account. But for the whole os, like /etc configs and systemd units not on user space, this is key. You can use it effectively like #ansible for your machine. But without #NixOS as a requirement! 🤯 It's pretty wild.
