Generates an initial <code class="filename">home.nix</code> file for the
current user. If Nix flakes are enabled, then this command also
generates a <code class="filename">flake.nix</code> file.
</p><p class="simpara">
If a path <em class="replaceable"><code>dir</code></em> is given then the
configuration will be generated in that directory. Otherwise, the
configuration will be generated in
<code class="filename">~/.config/home-manager</code>. The output directory will
be created if it does not exist.
</p><p class="simpara">
If the <code class="option">--switch</code> option is given, then the generated
configuration is activated.
</p><p class="simpara">
Note, this command will not overwrite any existing files. It is
therefore safe to initialize a configuration, edit it, and then re-run
the <code class="option">init</code> command with <code class="option">--switch</code>
enabled to activate the configuration.

Instantiate the configuration and print the resulting derivation.
