dotfiles -The best dotfiles in the entire universe.
Usage Guidelines
Installing terminal programs
The terminal programs I use can be installed through brew
by running brew.sh
, just like this:
$ . ./dotfiles/brew.sh
I also had to make a misc-installs.sh
script to install other necessary pieces of software which I could not install using brew
. This includes the zsh-spaceship
prompt.
Installing GUI applications
Most GUI applications I use — the ones that aren't bloatware — can also be installed through homebrew-cask
by running casks.sh
:
$ . ./dotfiles/casks.sh
MacOS Defaults
These are my favourite configurations for MacOS and I highly recommend you to at least take a look at this file and figure out what are yours.
Having all these set up in a single script is a huge life-quality improvement. Being able to setup simple things like showing file extensions, menu extras, dock settings, update checks and etc at the speed of a command has definitely changed my life for the better.
To run the script which sets those up just run .macos
:
$ ./dotfiles/.macos
Dotfiles
Well, this repository could not be called dotfiles
if it didn't actually have any dotfiles, right?
These contain configs for nvim
, zsh
, tmux
and git
.
To copy them to their correct places just run install.sh
:
$ . ./dotfiles/install.sh
Things you will have to do manually
Unfortunately, life has not yet given me the opportunity to make everything in this repo automatic, so here's a few things you will have to do by yourself:
Install tmux plugins
Once you have ran install.sh
to copy dotfiles to their right places (including .tmux.conf
), open tmux
and press prefix
(ctrl + a) + I (capital I, as in Install) to fetch the plugin.
Set Iterm's color preset (if using iTerm)
I am now using Alacritty instead of iTerm, but I've kept the color presets here in case you still want to use iTerm.
Open Iterm configs by pressing command + ,, go to Profiles
and then Colors
.
Choose the Nord.itermcolors
color preset.
Install powerline fonts
In order for powerline to work properly you will need to have powerline/fonts installed.
To install them you just need to clone the powerline/fonts repo and run the install.sh
script present in their root folter.
If you're using Alacritty, it will use the correct powerline font by default, since its configuration is made through a plain-text file.
If you're using ITerm, you need to configure it to use one of these fonts. To do that, open Iterm's configs by pressing command + ,, go to Profiles
and then Text
and click on Change Font
to choose one of the fonts for Powerline
.
