Welcome to my NixOS configuration repository.
It contains my system configuration as well as custom Nix packages and development environments.

One of the highlights of this repository is the LuaMetaTeX package located in the
pkgs/context subdirectory.

This Nix package is based on the excellent work of Marco Feltmann
and has been adapted for a modern flake-based setup.

• Up-to-date sources – uses the current repository from contextgarden/context
• Essential fonts – downloads the texmf.zip archive from Pragma ADE
• Ready-to-use commands – builds luametatex, mtxrun, and context binaries that mirror upstream behavior

The ConTeXt typesetting system, primarily developed by Hans Hagen, offers a leaner and more structured codebase than LaTeX.
In practice, ConTeXt provides a cleaner macro language, integrated fonts and layouts, and very high-quality PDF output.

From the repository root:

nix build .#context

The resulting binaries will appear in ./result/bin/.

To show more detailed build information:

nix build .#context --show-trace

A legacy non-flake build still works for compatibility:

nix-build -A luametatex pkgs/context

This repository also serves as a backup for my personal NixOS and Home-Manager configuration.
It may not be optimal in every respect, but it reflects my current setup and customization efforts.

To apply changes to your system:

sudo nixos-rebuild switch

If fonts are missing or new ones were installed:

fc-cache -r

Feel free to explore, adapt, and reuse any part of this configuration for your own NixOS setup.
