+## Steps for a new Darwin machine
+
+Start by installing nix, using [nix-installer](https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer) from [DeterminateSystems](https://determinate.systems).
+
+```sh
+curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install
+```
+
+Next, we need to install [homebrew](https://brew.sh):
+```sh
+/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
+```
+
+Finally, we need a [GitHub personal access token](https://github.com/settings/personal-access-tokens). Create one with an expiration time, and renew it when ever it's about to expire (we will get an email about this). The token needs to be stored in `~/.config/nix/nix.conf`:
+
+```
+access-tokens = github.com=****
+```
+
+Now you can build the configuration (remember, the host name is in lower case) :
+```sh
+nix run nix-darwin -- switch --flake .#hostname
+```
+
+Finally, switch the default shell via `chsh`, and set it to `/run/current-system/sw/bin/fish`.
+
+Best to reboot to complete the installation.
