Hi,

Would you be able to provide an opinionated installation instructions for someone wanting to use ordenada on Ubuntu instead of NixOS?

On foreign distros you would need to use Home Manager to get all the user-level configurations from your ordenada config. I personally have never tried this as my nix-config relies on building a NixOS configuration for every host and then getting all the home-manager users from that config via config.home-manager.users.${user} whose home configurations can be built with the home-manger CLI. However, I'll try to build a minimal config with only home-manager's modules and report back.
