Dean's Dotfiles

These are @deanmarano's configuration files.

If you're not Dean, welcome! You might find useful bits of config to steal. The bin folder contains some helpful scripts.

This contains config for:

terminal vim (text editor)
tmux (terminal multiplexer)
fish (shell)
asdf (version manager)
kitty (terminal emulator)
Homebrew

On a variety of platforms:

macOS
Linux
ChromeOS

If you're setting up a new computer:

Ensure git is installed
- Deb Linux - sudo apt install git
- Mac - install homebrew /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
cd; git clone https://github.com/deanmarano/dotfiles.git
- Use https until SSH key has been setup.
Run ~/dotfiles/setup.sh

Installing a new application

When adding an application to the setup:

Add the app to the install list (usually Brewfile)
Create the config in the dotfiles repo touch ~/dotfiles/app.conf
- I like to leave off the leading . to make the files visible, and add them back in the link
Create symlinks(s) for config to the correct location in link-dotfiles.sh
- With app as an example: ln -s ~/dotfiles/app.conf ~/.config/app/app.conf
- Reference files directly to dotfiles path, rather than creating more symlinks
Use the Solarized Light theme (if applicable)
