I gave this a shot, but C++ has been my mortal enemy for years because they haven't been bother to come up with a proper dependency management system. You basically have to be on the same system as the developer to have a chance at having the same environment.

My attempt ends up with syntax errors in glib-2.0 :shrug: The amazing thing is that 2.0 somehow doesn't mean 2.0, but can be anything from 2.0 to 2.78 (the current actual version of glib in nixpkgs). Makes 0 sense.

  # With glib2-76-2 as on debian woody at the moment

    "https://github.com/nixos/nixpkgs/tarball/04af42f3b31dba0ef742d254456dc4c14eedac86"
  ) {})
}:

pkgs.buildNpmPackage {
  pname = "touche";
  version = "2.0.11";
  src = pkgs.fetchFromGitHub {
    owner = "JoseExposito";
    repo = "touche";
    rev = "2.0.11";
    hash = "sha256-/6qDCFNUyBY4+mATjYhiCVBI5yvZpyBc9O91+02nO0Y=";
  };

  npmDepsHash = "sha256-vqhpmj/6VkgsKWt0FoZ7AJ73ChP7O8IO4OO0yE/Xcs4=";

I'll stop my attempts here. C++ desperately needs dependency management.

I can build with this bad piece of code (i have tried stuff without understanding, i haven't cleaned it)

Hey, I just quickly tested your code and I got it working! To fix the Adw issue I only needed to add libadwaita to the build inputs. The issue I'm now tackling is that after getting it running it can't find the touchegg installation. Will circle back if I figure anything out.

UPDATE: For anyone making a proper implementation, touche determines if touchegg is installed by checking if a valid system config file touchegg/touchegg.conf exists in one of $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS (relevant touche code) I copied the default touchegg config from my Nix store to /etc/xdg/touchegg/, after which touchegg started working correctly and was able to create a user config in ~/.config/touchegg/touchegg.conf. Note: creating an empty file at /etc/xdg/touchegg/touchegg.conf caused touche to error out. I only wanted to test touche out, so I won’t be doing any further work on it and will be deleting it from my setup. Hopefully, this helps others get it working!
