Installation

First, open a terminal on your NixOS machine.
Run the command below to update your system's packages and libraries:

```
[admin]
ip = "localhost"
port = 8001
# ...

ip = "localhost"
port = 8080
# ...
```
You can customize the configuration file to fit your specific use case. For more information on configuring Lura, check out the official Lura documentation.
Save and exit the configuration file.
