  • Nixite generates a bash script for unattended Linux software installation.
  • Supports Ubuntu and Arch Linux, auto-configures systems, and suppresses confirmation prompts.
  • Add packages by creating `app-name.toml` in `registry/` with distro-specific or common instructions.
  • Use `install_system` for default package managers (apt for Ubuntu, pacman for Arch).
  • Flatpak and Snap installations are supported with specific configurations.
  • Custom install commands can be specified with `install_command` and `skip_if_exists` to avoid re-runs.
  • After adding a package, update `src/pages/index.astro` with the package entry.
