Dotfiles

This repo is a fork of Nick Nisi's dotfiles repo, in spirit if not in fact.

I often find myself working on multiple *nix machines on a given day, and the goal of this project is to quickly deploy my configuration files and plugins for utilities like tmux and vim so that I can work in an environment I'm accustomed to.

This is still a work in progress which has been on the back burner as I'm working through school. I'm hoping to finish this by the end of Summer 2024.

Development Notes

Dotfiles repo

the file vim/vimrc.symlink assumes you've got the vim YouCompleteMe plugin installed otherwise, just use vimrc-basic.symlink

The install.sh script is not ready to go - I've just been symlinking manually

ln -sf /dotfiles/path/to/symlink/file .dotfile-in-home-dir

Recommended minimum shell stuff

ln -sf dotfiles/aliases.symlink .bash_aliases
ln -sf dotfiles/bash/bashrc.symlink .bashrc
ln -sf dotfiles/env.symlink .profile

Others I use everywhere

# tmux
ln -sf dotfiles/tmux/tmux.conf.symlink .tmux.conf

#vim

# requires YouCompleteMe

ln -sf dotfiles/vim/vimrc.symlink .vimrc



# for use if you're not gonna do a whole YCM install

ln -sf dotfiles/vim/vimrc-basic.symlink .vimrc
