To Do List

Here are all the things that I still want to do to make the operating system perfect. This is how I would configure my operating system. Meaning that these ‘demands’ are subjective and my taste.

Configuration

Some point

• modularity of the configurations:
  • create the ‘module loader’ that loads modules based on settings.
  • make it possible to load the config of a certain machine using the flake.
• secrets:
  • Make it possible for this repository to maintain secrets, locked behind a passphrase. Look into SOPS.

Usability

Here are some things that I still want to configure for the system to be as usable as possible:

• Add “boot to windows” option when booting up.
• Fix keybindings using the config files so that every machine is immediately fixed, see documentation.
• configure the a window manager, see documentation.
• configure the application launcher, see documentation.
• install all apps that I need, see here.
• Add fonts using the config, see here.

Configure the Application Launcher

Here are the things a application launcher needs to do:

• must launch applications.
• must be able to search for files and folders.
• must take commands:
  • sleep
  • hibernate
  • restart (reboot)
  • shut down
• must be able to calculate, and convert unites naturally.
• must be able to run terminal commands when starting a search with >.
