+## Home Manager Integration
+The home-manager nixos module is available for each host. It is meant
+to be used in the user profiles, you can find an example in the nixos user profile
+
+The home-manager configuration for each user in each system is available in the
+outputs as homeConfigurations and the activation packages in hmActivationPackages.
+
+This allows you to just build the home-manager environment without the rest of the
+system configuration. The feature is useful on systems without nixos or root access.
+
+Lets say you want to activate the home configuration for the user `nixos` in the 
+host `NixOS`.
+
+With the flk script:
+```sh
+# You can build it using
+flk home NixOS nixos
+# and activate with
+./result/activate
+
+# Or do both like this
+flk home NixOS nixos switch
+```
+
+This can also be done manually:
+```sh
+
+# With hmActivationPackages, what the flk script uses
+nix build ./#hmActivationPackages.NixOS.nixos
+
+# Or with homeConfigurations, 
+nix build ./#homeConfigurations.NixOS.nixos.home.activationPackage
+# this is hard to debug though, due to nix build's fallback to packages
+
+# The configuration can then be activated like before
+```

 ## Build an ISO
 
 You can make an ISO and customize it by modifying the [niximg](./hosts/niximg.nix)
