Curious… Any notorious examples?
As a newcomer from the Debian world, I appreciated the live installer providing me a familiar GUI to config local, partitions, desktop environment selection, and user login. Being able to reboot and seamlessly login to system with a working DE, networking, text editor, and browser was all I hoped for in order to continue with an online tutorial.
I suppose its autogenerated configuration.nix and hardware.nix worked as expected for my normal use case, but then what other use cases do we envision for the graphical installer?
Are we talking about more advance installation setups like for ZFS or BTFS, encrypted discs, digital signing for secure boot, and what else?
Or more introductory hand holding, like suggesting first edits to add common user packages to the auto generated config, or showcasing the respective diff that one’s currently selected choices in the installer wizard correspond to?
