@abcdw would you mind to describe the workflow to create a home service ?I remember that with system services you needed to reconfigure and reboot your system to see your modificationsDo one need to create a new session with home services ?I hope my question is clearThanks

@abbienormal You don't need to reboot after reconfigure in most cases.Guix Home basically creates configs in apropriate places and adds packages to profile, so everything will likely to work just after reconfigure. In some cases new environemnt variables will be introduced, then you need to relogin or source ~/.guix-home/setup-environment.I have a notification for such cases in rde and plan to upstream it to guix.https://git.sr.ht/~abcdw/rde/tree/f264757e9c272ff5aa62506a22bc464a5cd1243b/rde/features.scm#L263

@abbienormal Creating home services is basically the same as creating system serivces: the easiest way is to take some simple service as a basis, copy it, modify to accomplish your needs and test it by reconfiguring. Make sure that home service definition is on the guile load path.https://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Defining-Services.html

@abbienormal No problem, you can start simply by sourcing your existing config from emacs home service, you won't notice any changes here and after that you can move parts slowly from straight and old config to home service if you wish.
