Applications

Some applications come with shared defaults — Firefox hardened for privacy, VSCodium and Obsidian with a set of extensions — and each leaves a seam for a user to add their own on top. Git is set up to sign commits, and told which keys to trust.

home/example/default.nix
user = {
firefox.enable = true;
vscodium.extraExtensions = [ pkgs.vscode-extensions.ms-python.python ];
git.allowedSigners = ''
ada@example.com ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAA...
'';
};

An extension or plugin adds to the shared defaults rather than replacing them.
