  Add programs.firefox.enable = true; to configuration.nix.

  Call sudo nixos-rebuild switch. Maybe add –flake if you’re feeling adventurous.

  Done.

  Or, more realistically…

  programs = {
      firefox = {
          enable = true;
          # Configure anything you want here (language,
          # extensions, policies... whatever).
      };
      # Enable and configure other programs here.
  };
  

  … and keep the whole thing in a git repository to track changes and have it available for other machines.

    And you can even add programs.firefox.package = pkgs.librewolf; if you prefer it!

      And the default GUI configs come with Firefox iirc!

    dude, don’t try to sell me on an easy to configure distro, I’m just finishing up on the configs for my debian home server/sometimes workstation. Definitely don’t do it, don’t send me down the rabbit hole of reproducebility

      As a programmer, the moment I learned about nixos (here on lemmy, if I recall correctly) I knew that’d be the one I’d pick once I found the time to move to linux. It just seemed like a reasonable way of doing things, you know?

      Bit of a learning curve, but worth it, I believe.

    Lol, yay firefox-esr.

    And optionally ln -s /usr/sbin/firefox-esr ~/bin/webbrowser.
