Dotfiles

This is my dotfile repository. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

My primary operating system is macOS, but I do use Linux occasionally. I always aim to make everything work for both platforms but no guarantees.

Feel free to try out my dotfiles or use them as inspiration! If you have a suggestion, improvement or question, please open an issue or PR!

Installation

Clone the dotfiles repository.

$ git clone https://github.com/JDevlieghere/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
$ cd ~/dotfiles

Use the bootstrap script to create symbolic links and configure the tools and operating system.

$ ./bootstrap.sh
Usage: bootstrap.sh [options]

   -s, --sync             Synchronizes dotfiles to home directory
   -l, --link             Create symbolic links
   -i, --install          Install (extra) software
   -c, --config           Configures your system
   -a, --all              Does all of the above

$ ./bootstrap.sh -a

If you decide to use this configuration as is, don't forget to change your name and e-mail address in the .gitconfig and .hgrc files.

Application Configurations

(n)vim

After having used YouCompleteMe for a long time I switched to LSP and clangd. I wrote a blog post on how to set it up. More recently I've been using the built-in LSP client in neovim.

fish

I use fish shell. On macOS you'll have to add fish's path to /etc/shells.

chsh -s $(which fish)
