Dotfiles

My personal Dotfiles (and scripts) for macOS.

Using:

• Fleet and VSCode code editors
• Node environment management via nvm

• Karabiner for keyboard modifications
• Xencelabs Quick Keys macro keypad
• Typora markdown editor

Installation

Install via Curl

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IOIO72/dotfiles/main/dotfiles_install.sh)"

Install manually

1. Download the file dotfiles_install.sh.

2. chmod +x dotfiles_install.sh
   ./dotfiles_install.sh

Warning

Place the script outside the root of your home directory before you start it.

You may also see errors, when stow can't create a symlink. In this case, append a backup-Suffix to them and restart the script.

Recommendations

• Use the same home directory name on each mashine, to avoid conflicts with some configuration files, which store the absolute path to the home directory.
• Backup local files in the home directory, which will get overwritten by the ones of the dotfiles repository. The file ~/.zshrc is definitely one of those.
