Install Nix
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
While NixOS is a Linux distribution based on Nix, you can install Nix on
|
|
other Linux distributions, MacOS and Windows via WSL using the install
|
|
script from our website:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh
|
|
|
|
(For security, you may want to `verify the script`_ using our GPG
|
|
signatures.)
|
|
|
|
Check that the installation was successful by running
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
nix-channel --list
|
|
|
|
This command displays the package distribution channel used by Nix. By
|
|
default, this is ``https://nixos.org/channels/nixpkgs-unstable``
