Reproducible and declarative configuration in QubesOS

I’m not looking to modify the Qubes OS source code to achieve reproducibility.

In fact I misunderstood your needs…

@Waltz5

Instead, I’m looking for a way to achieve a declarative and reproducible configuration of my QubesOS system, similar to what NixOS provides.

@Waltz5

the closest thing I’ve thought of is using a bash script that uses Qubes management tools like qvm-create, qvm-clone, qvm-prefs, etc.

Yes Bash script is a way to do it. The other ways are Salt and Ansible (presently very alpha).
