<title>Profiles</title>
<para>
In some cases, it may be desirable to take advantage of
commonly-used, predefined configurations provided by nixpkgs, but
different from those that come as default. This is a role fulfilled
by NixOS's Profiles, which come as files living in
<literal>&lt;nixpkgs/nixos/modules/profiles&gt;</literal>. That is
to say, expected usage is to add them to the imports list of your
<literal>/etc/configuration.nix</literal> as such:
</para>
<programlisting language="bash">
imports = [
&lt;nixpkgs/nixos/modules/profiles/profile-name.nix&gt;
];
</programlisting>
<para>
Even if some of these profiles seem only useful in the context of
install media, many are actually intended to be used in real
installs.
</para>
<para>
What follows is a brief explanation on the purpose and use-case for
each profile. Detailing each option configured by each one is out of
scope.
