  # This is the standard format for flake.nix. `inputs` are the dependencies of the flake,
  # Each item in `inputs` will be passed as a parameter to the `outputs` function after being pulled and built.
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs-darwin.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable";

      url = "github:lnl7/nix-darwin";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs-darwin";
    };
  };

  # The `outputs` function will return all the build results of the flake.
  # A flake can have many use cases and different types of outputs,
  # parameters in `outputs` are defined in `inputs` and can be referenced by their names.
  # However, `self` is an exception, this special parameter points to the `outputs` itself (self-reference)
  # The `@` syntax here is used to alias the attribute set of the inputs's parameter, making it convenient to use inside the function.
