Stylix
Stylix is a NixOS module which applies the same colour scheme, font and wallpaper to a range of applications and desktop environments.
What's this?
base16.nix allows you to import colours from base16 into Nix code. Stylix takes this a step further:
- Automatically colours and changes the font of apps
- Sets your wallpaper
- Exports the colour scheme to be used manually for anything we missed
- Can also generate themes based on an image
For those not familiar with NixOS and Home Manager:
- NixOS is a Linux distribution
- Home Manager is a program which runs anywhere
- Both use the Nix language and package manager
- Both let you install programs and change settings via code
Stylix supports either NixOS + Home Manager, or Home Manager on its own. Certain features are only available with NixOS.
Resources
Please refer to the Stylix book for instructions and a list of supported apps.
For a visual guide, watch the Ricing Linux Has Never Been Easier | NixOS + Stylix YouTube video by Vimjoyer.
Note
It's now necessary to include
stylix.enable = true
in your configuration for any other settings to take effect. This is not mentioned in the video linked above.

KDE theming is still a work in progress - so some manual steps may be needed to apply the settings completely.
