dotfiles

My dotfiles, managed using GNU Stow.

This repository contains configurations for various tools I use daily. GNU Stow is used to symlink configuration files (dotfiles) into their appropriate locations in the home directory.

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:

• curl
• git
• stow
• The app you want to configure (e.g., zsh, vim, etc.)

Zsh Setup Example

1. Clone the repository and symlink the Zsh configuration with GNU Stow:

   cd ~
   git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/BlockLune/dotfiles.git
   cd dotfiles
   stow zsh

2. Set up the .zshrc file:

   echo 'source "$HOME/.zshrc_base"' > ~/.zshrc

3. (Optional) Change your default shell to Zsh:

   chsh -s "$(which zsh)"

4. Restart your terminal emulator or open a new Zsh session to apply changes.

Vim Setup Example

1. Clone the dotfiles repository and symlink the Vim configuration:

   cd ~
   git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/BlockLune/dotfiles.git
   cd dotfiles
   stow vim

2. Install the plugin manager vim-plug:

   curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \
     https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

3. Launch Vim and install plugins:

   vim +PlugInstall

   Or, manually within Vim:

   :PlugInstall
