dotfiles

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

Installation

Setup oh-my-zsh

export ZSH=~/Documents/git/oh-my-zsh
curl -L https://raw.github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh | sh

Setup Cider

Disclaimer: I do not know if cider restore may overwrite pre-existing files

pip install --upgrade cider
git clone https://github.com/RogerThiede/dotfiles.git ~/.cider
cider restore

Curious about my setup?

My system is reliant upon the Mac App Store, Homebrew, Homebrew Cask, and oh-my-zsh.

After reviewing many different public dotfile systems, frameworks, and dotfile utilities such as those summarized on the unofficial guide to dotfiles on GitHub, I discovered the simplicity offered by a single tool called Cider that saves and restores your Homebrew and Homebrew Cask setup as well as saving and restoring ~ symlinks.

My dotfiles are managed via Cider, a hassle-free bootstrapping python tool using Homebrew.
