home-manager only instructions

1. install nix, enable flakes
2. install homebrew
3. clone to ~/nixfiles
4. run bin/switch
5. run brew-up to install any Homebrew software defined in the created ~/.Brewfile (we could use nix-darwin, but it introduces a lot of complexity and you still need to install homebrew manually anyways... not totally worth the lift. But if I ever change my mind there's a working spike (as of 2024-02-18) at https://github.com/flyinggrizzly/nixfiles/tree/nix-darwin-spike)
