This is a quick and painless tutorial on how to install and configure NixOS from Scratch. It involves starting off with Home manager and Flakes before even rebuilding your system.

Video format of written guide:
- https://youtube.com/watch?v=2QjzI5dXwDY
Source code for example NixOS config
- https://github.com/tonybanters/nixos-from-scratch

I thought the example using builtins.mapAttrs with create_symlink for xdg.configFile was cleverly simple.
