Nix Software Center

A graphical app store for Nix built with libadwaita, GTK4, and Relm4. Heavily inspired by GNOME Software.

• Install packages to configuration.nix
  • Flakes support can be enabled in the preferences menu
• Install packages with nix profile or nix-env
• Show updates for all installed packages
• Search for packages
• Launch applications without installing via nix-shell and nix run

flake.nix

{ inputs = { # other inputs nix-software-center.url = "github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center"; # rest of flake.nix

configuration.nix

environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [ inputs.nix-software-center.packages.${system}.nix-software-center # rest of your packages ]; 

Head of configuration.nix

if you are on unstable channel or any version after 22.11:

{ config, pkgs, lib, ... }: let nix-software-center = import (pkgs.fetchFromGitHub { owner = "snowfallorg"; repo = "nix-software-center"; rev = "0.1.2"; sha256 = "xiqF1mP8wFubdsAQ1BmfjzCgOD3YZf7EGWl9i69FTls="; }) {}; in ... environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [ nix-software-center # rest of your packages ];

For any other method of installation, when rebuilding you might be prompted to authenticate twice in a row by pkexec

nix profile install github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center

git clone https://github.com/snowfallorg/nix-software-center nix-env -f nix-software-center -i nix-software-center

nix run github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center

nix --extra-experimental-features "nix-command flakes" run github:snowfallorg/nix-software-center
