Oh yep, they are declarative, and that's what we've tried to implement with /system.yaml. pacman hooks and grub configs can be defined through /system.yaml (through a combination of the packages and commands arrays), but Plasma config is per-user and so wouldn't be possible to declare unfortunately :( you can declare GNOME config though, fwiw

(disclaimer: blendOS dev here)

    nix has home manager for that, but even then, plasma configs are a huge mess there.

    thanks for the reply and your hard work :)

    oh yep, should've clarified, /system.yaml's, as the name might suggest (lol), for system-wide config only, and GNOME just so happens to support system-wide config (dconf and gsettings overrides); we used to have a utility for declaring config for individual users akin to home-manager in blendOS v3, but dropped it with v4 since that wasn't used much; still might make a return though :)

    thank you for your support! :)
