Adam's dotfiles

Fresh OS Install Method:

Supposedly simple setup for macOS:

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LavaToaster/dotfiles/main/bootstrap.zsh | zsh

General Philosophy/Notes:

Going into this iteration of my dotfiles I wanted to ensure that it followed XDG Base Directory specs for apps. So you'll find all config for everything, unless hardcoded and required, under $HOME/.config.

Tips:

Homebrew maintenance:

I've found throughout the years since I finally setup a dotfiles repo that maintaining a list of active programs and things you install via brew comes and go's.

I'll be making this more and more strict in the future, but for now interaction with homebrew if you plan on keeping a tool or app should be updating ~/.config/mac/Brewfile then running hbu.

As time passes and the apps you have installed change you can use hbc to run a cleanup check and it will list apps you've installed via brew but haven't declared in Brewfile.

Shell Autocomplete:

Installed a new tool and completion isn't working? Try running rll which will remove the zsh completion dump and reload the shell. If it still doesn't work ensure that completions can be found on $fpath

This is done as a performance measure to ensure that zsh isn't constantly compiling completion code and slowing down terminal setup.

Credits:

These dotfiles are inspired via the following repos:

Tools used/configured:

  • zinit - zsh plugin manager
  • yadm - dotfiles manager
  • zsh
  • volta - used for node/npm/yarn version management
  • neovim
  • Maybe more that I haven't listed because I've forgotten to update the readme.
