Tutorial: Installing Wikmd on NixOS Latest

Wikmd is a markdown editor and previewer that runs in your browser. In this tutorial, we'll walk through the steps to install and run Wikmd on NixOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before beginning, make sure you have the following installed:

A working installation of NixOS Latest
Git, to clone the Wikmd repository

Steps

Open your terminal and navigate to your home directory.
```
cd ~
```

Clone the Wikmd repository.

git clone https://github.com/Linbreux/wikmd.git

Navigate into the Wikmd directory.
```
cd wikmd
```
Create a new file called default.nix.
```
touch default.nix
```
Open the default.nix file in your preferred text editor.
```
nano default.nix
```

Paste the following into the default.nix file.

with import <nixpkgs> {};
stdenv.mkDerivation {
  name = "wikmd-${version}";
  version = "0.1";
  src = ./.;
  buildInputs = [
    nodejs
  ];
  installPhase = "cp --recursive * $out";
}

This code tells Nix to create a new derivation for Wikmd, which includes the nodejs package as a build input.

Save and close the default.nix file.
Build Wikmd with Nix.
```
nix-build -A wikmd
```
This command will create a new directory called result/ in your current directory.
Verify that Wikmd is working.
```
cd result/
npm install --only=prod
npm run start
```
This will install the required dependencies and start the Wikmd server. Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:5000/. You should see the Wikmd editor and previewer.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed and run Wikmd on NixOS Latest.
