How to use

RedNixOS is meant to be used in one of the following ways:

  1. Inside a virtual machine (for example, as a playground or for testing purposes).
  2. Live install (sometimes capable of replacing Kali, but RedNixOS way cooler).
  3. Persistent install (it works, but most people don't exactly use it like this).

Build instructions

Once you have tweaked the distribution to your liking, or chose to trust the defaults we have prepared for you, run the following command:

nix build

Note: by default, RedNixOS unstable will be built with KDE.
