+This is a unified repo to contain my personal configurations for NixOS machines.
+
+# How To Use This
+
+Go through the normal process to setup a NixOS system during installation.
+
+1. Boot from an appropriate medium
+2. Parition the drives
+3. Mount them
+4. Before you generate out the configuration, clone this repoistory to your
+   /etc/nixos folder
+5. Run the configuration generator. It should only genreate the hardware-configuration.nix
+   file, which this repo gitignores
+6. Symlink the folder for the appropriate host to the location 'host' as such:
+   `ln -s hosts/myhost host`.
+7. Run the nixos installation command
+
+# Adding new hosts
+
+To add a new host, create a folder in the directory `hosts/` that matches the name of
+the target system. Each host must contain, minimally, a `default.nix` file that serves
+as the basis of configuring that host.
+
+## Profiles
+
+Certain shared characteristics can be created in the `profiles/` folder and included in
+a particular host's configuration. For instance, any hosts that are running on a
+Raspsberry Pi 4 should include the `profiles/rpi4.nix` file to properly configure things
+like the kernel and boot parameters. Since I live in the "America/Chicago" timezone, hosts
+that run in my home will also include `profiles/home.nix`. That file will also set the
+domain that I use for my hosts at home. This allows shared content to be reused across
+multiple machines without the need to repeat it.
