system.userActivationScripts

A set of shell script fragments that are executed by a systemd user service when a NixOS system configuration is activated. Examples are rebuilding the .desktop file cache for showing applications in the menu. Since these are executed every time you run nixos-rebuild, it's important that they are idempotent and fast.
