I think it’s about time I improved a bit on my Nix and NixOS knowledge, and I guess the best way is having someone more experienced critique my monstrosity of a setup.

Maybe it’s too modular? Not modular enough? Convoluted? Complete garbage altogether?

Go to the repo and find out! Just be sure to let me know after.

    I wasn’t very clear in how I wrote those points, I think you got it backwards.

    My points was that OP was using recursiveMerge, and I think that is not a very common or useful pattern to follow, because you evade the module system, for no good reason(?).

    I think you are already following the most common pattern out there. If you would like to, there are ways to avoid having a default.nix file for each module, but in my opinion that only makes it harder for other people to understand your modules.
