Hi, thanks for your flake! Im running a flake for my OS config on nixos. I am using zaneyos a nixos custom flake configuration.

https://gitlab.com/Zaney/zaneyos

Does this build on top of your system flake? Does this make it like installing an app on nixos?

if im already running a nixos that was built via flakes. Do i just git clone this repo into another directory and

sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake ?

please provide how you use it as i really want to use aider on nixos and would appreciate any input you can provide

Hello. This is how I use it: https://github.com/jbotwell/mynix/blob/main/modules/home-manager/aider.nix which is through home manager.

But if you want to do it in your nixos config, it should look similar. Just with environment.systemPackages instead of home.packages. You could also use nix run github:jbotwell/nixaider and bind that to an alias if you like.

I hope that helps!

Also please see the top level flake file: https://github.com/jbotwell/mynix/blob/main/flake.nix for how I define inputs
