A sensible NixOS Xfce configuration

A sensible NixOS Xfce Configuration

NixOS provides good support for the Xfce desktop environment out-of-the-box, but the defaults are minimal. The files in this Gist provide a more complete experience, including a suite of basic software and plugins as well as an optional home-manager configuration for theming.

The key additions to the default Xfce provided by NixOS are:

  • Complete bluetooth / audio support with panel indicators and apps
  • LightDM with theme
  • Extra Xfce apps for calendaring, disk partitioning, etc.
  • Various quality-of-life improving non-essentials
