Your whole system is defined in a file called configuration.nix. This file
describes everything about your system: all packages installed, which Desktop
Environment / Window Manager to use, and also configuration for almost
everything (e.g. zsh or neovim). When “switching” (which is basically
installing/updating the system), Nix looks at the configuration and changes your
system according to what you’ve declared in the configuration.nix, installing
or uninstalling packages for instance.
So, the state of your system is “declared” in a single file, which can be
tracked in git or backed up wherever. If you have mulitple systems, you can also
share parts of your config between them, which makes configuring and customizing
stuff a lot easier.
There are a lot of other aspects, but thats the basic gist of it
Declarative? Could you explain?
