Description

Is it possible to let user configure copyparty with nix on nix-on-droid, so user can launch it easily with the config file, maybe using a wrapper?

If it is possible to configure it with nix, can it be configured to run as a service like this? (but I think this part is hard because nix-on-droid does not have systemd)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to package copyparty with Nix for nix on droid, including creating a derivation and a wrapper script. Check if existing nixpkgs packages can be used as reference.
