# Getting Started With Auxolotl
|
|
|
|
There are a few ways you can get started with Aux:
|
|
|
|
- [I want to install the full distribution.](#installing-the-aux-distribution)
|
|
- [I want to convert my existing NixOS install to Auxolotl](#converting-nixos-to-aux)
|
|
- [I just want to install the Aux package manager and command-line tool.](#installing-the-aux-command-line-tool)
|
|
|
|
## Installing the Aux command-line tool
|
|
|
|
Open a terminal and run this command to install Aux:
|
|
|
|
```shell=
|
|
$ TODO
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Verify the installation by running this command:
|
|
|
|
```shell=
|
|
$ TODO
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 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` input to use the Auxolotl nixpkgs repository.
|
|
|
|
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>";
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
