Niux

Simple CLI package manager that automates installing packages via NixOS and home-manager.

Desktopfreeglobal

Niux is a command-line tool that lets NixOS and home-manager users install, remove, and manage packages with short commands similar to apt or pacman, while automatically editing the right Nix configuration file and rebuilding afterward. It stays fully declarative and supports both flake and non-flake NixOS setups. Built for NixOS users who want traditional package-manager convenience without giving up Nix's configuration model.
