+# Using on Nix/NixOS
+
+Emanote can be easily built using the Nix expressions provided in its source repo.
+
+You will need [Nix](https://nixos.org/download.html) version 2.4 or greater.
+
+## Installing with Nix Flakes
+
+This will provide the `emanote` command in your environment.
+
+```sh-session
+$ nix profile install github:srid/emanote
+```
+
+## Using Emanote as a Home Manager service
+
+[Home Manager][home-manager] is a
+Nix-based personal configuration manager. If you use Home Manager,
+then Emanote has a [module][] that can be imported into your
+configuration.
+
+Merge or import this config into your `~/.config/nixpkgs/home.nix`:
+```nix
+{ config, ... }:
+let
+  emanote = import (builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/srid/emanote/archive/master.tar.gz");
+in {
+  imports = [ emanote.homeManagerModule ];
+  services.emanote = {
+    enable = true;
+    # host = "127.0.0.1"; # default listen address is 127.0.0.1
+    # port = 7000;        # default http port is 7000
+    notes = [
+      "/home/user/notes"  # add as many layers as you like
+    ];
+    package = emanote.defaultPackage.${builtins.currentSystem};
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Re-apply your home-manager configuration the usual way (e.g. `home-manager switch`).
+
+You will then have an `emanote` command in your profile, and a systemd
+user service running a live-preview of your notes.
+
+```sh-session
+$ home-manager switch
+...
+$ systemctl --user status emanote.service
+● emanote.service - Emanote web server
