Hi all, I've been getting into nix lately (I've been posting here frequently) and wanted to know what projects everyone is working on. Are you trying to integrate nix into an existing project? Contribute to nixpkgs? Experiment with your configs?

I've been slowly expanding my home manager configuration to consume more and more of my existing dotfiles and programs. Whats awesome is how short it's taken me to say, convert my neovim config over. It was small anyway, since I never jumped into nvim configuration. But since nix made it so easy to add on plugins, I've been having a lot of fun and it's been easy to iterate upon.

Eventually I'm going to have to break out my config between my two systems, since I'm starting to install some beefier creative GUI utilities (gimp, blender, inkscape) on my laptop, which I don't do (or want to do) that creative work on.
