That is quite an involved setup to get a costly autocomplete going.

Is that really where we are at? Just outsource convenience to a few big players that can afford the hardware? Just to save on typing and god forbid…thinking?

Keep in mind that this setup is a one-time cost. Also, a lot of the code is related to configuring it the way the author wants it (via Home Manager).

Generally speaking, once you have a working NixOS config, incremental changes become extremely trivial, safe, and easy to rollback.
