NixiN's roadmap

This project is still very young but the main steps are already identified. The roadmap may move if priorities are evolving.

v0.1

This version targets builds for simple mono-server configuration that can contain multiple webapps.

We are using nixos-generators to be able to build any type of container or vm, for any architecture.

The code is based on Vitepress, a static webapp that is used for documentation, and includes a dynamic component in vuejs for generating NixOS configuration files.

Nothing is saved server side, but the user must handler their configuration files by their own.

Features

  • networking options with wireguard configuration options
  • nixpkgs selection
  • download or copy/paste generated configuration.nix
  • templates for custom bundles
  • templates for custom configuration.nix

Proposed bundles

  • Write collectively : Hedgedoc pads, Wallabag, Nextcloud
  • Social Medias : GoToSocial, Peertube, Lemmy
  • Forge : Forgejo, Forgejo runners, NixiN

v0.2

This version includes a go server backend that authenticate users, save their configuration in a git repository and their machines passwords in a personal git password store.

Features

  • user management
  • configurations can be versioned and edited.
  • automatic creation of password store and machine inventory in a git repository
  • automatic generation of encrypted password, store in personal password store, when a configuration that needs a password
  • manual deploy with krops

Proposed bundles

  • Personal data management
  • Private cloud storage

v0.3

CI/CD to test and deploy configurations to production servers or build OCI containers / VM images

Features

  • use CI to verify and build machines before real deployment
  • manage your deploys from your NixiN interface

Proposed bundles

  • Containerize your machine's services : microvm, NixiN

v0.4

Bundles for clustered / distributed services

Proposed bundles

  • Email / S3 / webhosting : garage, aerogramme
  • Resilience, anti-censorship : eris, ygdrasil

Hopefully in the nearest future

  • simple monitoring of machines in inventory
  • ability to list services on a machine and start/stop/restart them
  • backups operations (view, download, restore)
  • desktop webUI (build your kde plasma, gnome, hyprland, etc.. desktop configurations)
  • Unix users and user's configurations management
