🔌 Using as a Flake Input

You can use the NeoVim, Terminal, and Tmux configurations in your own flake without adopting the entire configuration:

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable";
    home-manager.url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";

    # Add this config as an input
    cb-config.url = "github:chetanbhasin/nix-config";
  };

  outputs = { nixpkgs, home-manager, cb-config, ... }: {
    homeConfigurations.myuser = home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
      pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.aarch64-darwin;
      modules = [
        # Import individual modules
        cb-config.homeManagerModules.neovim
        cb-config.homeManagerModules.terminal
        cb-config.homeManagerModules.tmux

        # Or import all at once
        # cb-config.homeManagerModules.default

        # Configure the modules
        {
          cb.neovim.enable = true;
          cb.terminal.enable = true;
          cb.tmux.enable = true;
        }
      ];
    };
  };
}
