Hey, complete Nix newbie here. Anyone got any advice on setting up Hyprland for NixOS? It seems a bit more difficult than I initially expected.

For reference, I'm using a laptop with Nvidia Optimus. If there's any roundabout methods I have to do to circumvent that, or if Nvidia isn't supported on NixOS hyprland yet, please let me know!

I'm a newbie also and am trying to get a minimal config working. I have seen quite a few examples posted with Nvidia patches, so I'd assume that there is a chance your laptop would be supported.

Once I get something basic working I'll report back

Lol I got it working a few hours after this post went up, and have been ricing and editing the config bit by bit over the last two weeks. I am very sorry for wasting your time. The nvidia patched version worked like a charm.

No worries! Do you by chance have a minimal config that you wouldn't mind sharing? :)

I haven't transitioned my stuff to home manager, so it's far from minimal. I have a bunch of apps installed and options placed everywhere. It's been a busy week, I doubt I'd be able to provide anything clean before next week.
