How to configure your .bash_profile?

First open a terminal window and go to the home directory:

cd ~

Then edit the file in the terminal (using nano means if the file does not exist it will be automatically created):

sudo nano .bash_profile

or open the file in another program:

open ~/.bash_profile

Once you have finished editing save the file and reload terminal:

source ~/.bash_profile

Terminal should now read from your updated configuration.

Find the source with more details here.

Why?

Recently I started messing around with the terminal. I always knew about the bash_profile but nothing related to aliases. So after some digging I learned more about aliases and I'm blown away. Aliases can save up so much time using the terminal. After creating my own bash_profile with aliases I decided to open source it.

My configuration is really simple for now and as I'm learning new things and update my bash_profile, I'm gonna update this repo as well.

Setup
