How to Build

Using Nix (Recommended)

Build Complete Application

# Build everything (default)
nix build

# Or explicitly
nix build '.#default'

The result will include:

• /bin/logos-app-poc - The main Logos application executable
• All required modules and dependencies

Build Individual Components

# Build only the main application
nix build '.#app'

Development Shell

# Enter development shell with all dependencies
nix develop

Note: In zsh, you need to quote the target (e.g., '.#default') to prevent glob expansion.

If you don't have flakes enabled globally, add experimental flags:

nix build --extra-experimental-features 'nix-command flakes'

The compiled artifacts can be found at result/

Running the Application

After building with nix build, you can run the application:

# Run the main Logos application
./result/bin/logos-app-poc

The application will automatically load all required modules and dependencies. All components are bundled in the Nix store layout.

macOS Distribution (Experimental)

Build a standalone .app bundle or DMG installer for macOS. This is experimental and intended for testing purposes.

# Build .app bundle
nix build '.#app-bundle'

# Build DMG installer
nix build '.#dmg'

The outputs will be at:

• result/LogosApp.app/ - Application bundle
• result/LogosApp.dmg - DMG installer

Nix Organization

The nix build system is organized into modular files in the /nix directory:

• nix/default.nix - Common configuration and main application build
• nix/app.nix - Application-specific compilation settings
• nix/main-ui.nix - UI components compilation
• nix/counter.nix - Counter module compilation
• nix/macos-bundle.nix - macOS .app bundle (darwin only)
• nix/macos-dmg.nix - macOS DMG installer (darwin only)
