Okay that's so thoughtful.

Shouldn't you be fine using lemmy.world?
Its alright! I am kinda trying to figure it out myself. But thankyou for the initial push
I am seeing this repo: https://github.com/Jas-SinghFSU/HyprPanel/blob/master/nix/module.nix
this uses astal to create the said interface but is also configuring the settings like how I want, except it uses json and ts for it where I have scss and lua, otherwise I just can't wrap my head around how i can translate it to my needs. Maybe I don't need to edit the files in the build, I could just edit or update the astel.scss using nix as well like how its done there using builtins and other functions, can you help me here, if you've got time.
I don't think there is a way to give the config during runtime or while calling the binary of the app, I will keep trying something, one thing I think that may help is creating that file during the build process, but I just don't have enough knowledge to do that.
So I am importing in home manager file and the syntax and building is fine, the file is also being created in my ~/requested folder.
But I think there has been a misunderstanding in my concept of how this package is being installed and where it will get its colors from, so this flake package astal takes colors from where it is built right? and inside there will be created a scss folder which will have the themes/astel.css file, but in our setup we will only create a file in *user's home/.config/astal directory, but then how will the app use that file? I am getting confuse here, I tried to change the astel.scss file lines to @import "~/.config/astal/scss/themes/astel.scss";
but no cigar. I am missing a piece here, can you please help me?
Sry I am asking a little too much help now.
Please consider these sources:

Yeah, must be the wind
@balsoft Help wanted my G!, I am stuck here I created this flake for my astal widget config: https://github.com/mobsenpai/astal.git
And I have this flake for my main nixos config: https://github.com/hana.git
I can try to import it now, but perhaps it seems that there is some error here. I try building this astal config using nix build (just to try to test it) and it creates a result folder inside the astal folder, where i have its flake and configs, see the astal repo, those are the contents of the folder. But there is no check.scss file gets created in the scss/theme/ folder. I haven't yet tried to import it into my nixos system, for now, didn't get the time, but will update you on that, but I feel something if not a lot of things are not good here.
Wow, my G! This is incredibly well-structured, and I really appreciate that you even included comments. It’s genuinely helpful, and I’m definitely going to give it a try.
I actually posted this while my exams are ongoing, hoping someone would respond in the meantime. For real, thank you so much. I love this community!
can you provide me with a simple example, and syntax. I have tried, but failed. I want that the astal config uses a custom colorscheme which i configure somehow that can be given as option when importing that flake in the main nixos system.
I am guessing shibuya kaho but with no confidence
Ahh I see
