Dotfiles

Your dotfiles are how you personalize your system. These are mine.

Components

There are a few special files in the hierarchy.

bin/: Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere.
Brewfile: This is a list of applications to install.
topic/path.zsh: Any file named path.zsh is loaded first and is expected to expected to setup $PATH or similar.
topic/*.zsh: Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment.
topic/*.symlink: Any file ending in *.symlink gets symlinked into your $HOME. This is so you can keep all of those versioned in your dotfiles but still keep those autoloaded files in your home directory. These get symlinked in when you run script/bootstrap.

Clone the repository
script/bootstrap This will symlink the appropriate files in .dotfiles to your home directory. Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles.
