KaitoianOS
Fully customizable container-based operating system based on
NixOS
running SwayDE.
What even is this Config?
So I believe I have no life, so I migrated from a super unstable and limited OS (DOS) to FreeBSD, however FreeBSD had limited packages being maintained on Fresh Ports so I figured might as well become a Linux user. After distro hopping for 3 months I was introduced to NixOS by Youwen claiming that it would solve my problems of having to configure everything on seperate directories, common on most distros such as Arch or Debian.
Why switch to Hyprland
Although Sway is a reliable and well developed window manager, it doesn't offer the same versatility as Hyprland in Wayland. Hyprland, although has too much eyecandy, it does offer a more polished and complete operating system especially to display beautiful color scheme. I adopted youwen's Hyprland configuration because it is preconfigured and it has all that I need in terms of productivity in this operating system.
