# Install Nix
|
|
|
|
Install the Nix package manager according to the official documentation on [nixos.org](https://nixos.org/download/).
|
|
|
|
On Linux, simply run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sh <(curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Add the following to `~/.config/nix/nix.conf` (recommended) or `/etc/nix/nix.conf`:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
experimental-features = nix-command flakes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `nix-command` enables the [new `nix` CLI](https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.29/command-ref/new-cli/nix.html) Nix is transitioning to.
|
|
- `flakes` will be covered later in this guide. Don't worry about them for now.
|
|
|
|
Reload your session to get access to the `nix` command.
