+An IaC recipe for my digital infrastructure and configurations. An evolution of
+the "dotfiles" thingy I had going for several years.
+
+If you stumbled on this repository on GitHub, GitLab and such, the version you
+are currently looking at is a /"stripped"/ down rendition of *nixfiles* where IP
+addresses, domain names, secrets and other sensitive information was removed or
+replaced with gibberish. This is done so that you can get a general
+understanding of how stuff is made without me spilling the beans too much...
+
+If you are looking to get into Nix and NixOS, I /highly/ suggest to take this
+only as a reference and not just mindlessly copy-paste everything.
+
+* Inspiration and Credits
+
+Big thanks to everyone involved with Nix/NixOS/Nixpkgs and everything around
+these! Hopefully, the Nix ecosystem will get a lot more traction and the
+long-awaited industry-wide adoption.
