`darwin.linux-builder` provides a way to bootstrap a Linux remote builder on a macOS machine.
This requires macOS version 12.4 or later.
The builder runs on host port 31022 by default.
The remote builder runs on host port 31022 by default.
You can change it by overriding `virtualisation.darwin-builder.hostPort`.
See the [example](#sec-darwin-builder-example-flake).

Initially you should not change the builder configuration else you will not be
able to use the binary cache. However, after you have the builder running locally
you may use it to build a modified builder with additional storage or memory.
Initially you should not change the remote builder configuration else you will not be
able to use the binary cache. However, after you have the remote builder running locally
you may use it to build a modified remote builder with additional storage or memory.
To do this, you just need to set the `virtualisation.darwin-builder.*` parameters as
in the example below and rebuild.
