My .dotfiles

Configure my computers.

Getting started

First time, clone repository:

git clone https://github.com/ianhomer/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles

And install with

~/.dotfiles/start

Update and run administrative actions with:

dotme

Why

The configuration process in this repository provides me with my preferred way of working to streamline distraction free coding. This includes:

brew : package manager

fish and zsh : friendly interactive shells

git : source control

wezterm : slick terminals

neovim : file editing with plugins - none-ls ; dispatch ; fugitive ; fzf.vim ; lsp ; markdown-preview ; nvim tree ; repeat ; startify ; surround ; tabular ; which-key ; surround

FiraCode Nerd Font : ligatures, powerline and more

MacOS with

alfred : better hotkeys

hiddenbar : focused status bar

rectangle : window manager

Other tools woven into these dotfiles include ag, fzf, fugitive, java, node and python.

How

dotfiles are all located in sub-folders in the dotfiles/ folder for the associated tools. Installation stows these in your home directory, i.e. original backed up and dotfiles linked into place. Further installation and configuration takes place with scripts in the bin directory. Look at bin/dotme to see what actually happens.

Components are initialised separately, see dotme -h to get a list of each part. man dotme will give you more guidance on usage.

I configure some components on my system manually for minor tweaks and enhancements.

To customise local dotme configuration, vi ~/.config/dotme/.env and edit a properties to look like:

MY_NOTES=my-notes
