There are a few ways you can get started with Aux:

## Converting NixOS to Aux
If you have an existing NixOS installation and want to convert it to use Aux, all you need to do is change your `nixpkgs` source to use the Auxolotl nixpkgs repository (substituting `<release>` with desired release - such as `unstable` or `23.11`).
### Channels
To change your `nixpkgs` channel to pull from Aux, run the following command:
```shell=
nix-channel --add https://github.com/auxolotl/nixpkgs/nixos-<release> nixpkgs
```
On your next `nix-channel --update` or `nixos-rebuild --upgrade`, Aux will get pulled.
### Flakes
Open your `flake.nix` file and change the following line:
```nix
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-<release>";
```
to:
```nix
nixpkgs.url = "github:auxolotl/nixpkgs/nixos-<release>";
```
