+# Laptop configuration
+
+This is the Guix Home configuration for my laptop, currently being used on a foreign distro (Fedora Asahi Remix) but I may switch to a full Guix System eventually. It utilizes `just` for running commands that reconfigure the system, along with using `guix time-machine` and a `channel.scm.lock` file for enhanced reproducability.
