# FAQ
This is more meant as a "Fully Anticipated Questions" than a "Frequently Asked Questions", as they're anticipated as common pitfalls to using NDE.
## I am new to Nix. Is this the only way to use Doom Emacs with Nix/NixOS?
Nope! Doom Emacs is still perfectly usable imperatively. In fact, the very author of Doom Emacs uses NixOS and install Doom Emacs with an ["imperative" setup](https://github.com/hlissner/dotfiles/blob/master/modules/editors/emacs.nix). You could just follow the instructions on the [Doom Emacs GitHub repository](https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs) to get a working setup.
## OK, I put your snippets into my NixOS configuration, and I put my Doom Emacs configuration as well. How do I `doom sync`?
To update your Doom Emacs config, you simply run `nixos-rebuild switch` (or `home-manager switch` if you use Home-Manager standalone). Nix-Doom-Emacs will do everything else for you.
