krider2010 does dotfiles If you're interested in the philosophy behind why projects like these are awesome, you might want to read Zach Holman's post on the subject . Indeed, this repo was forked from Holman's dotfile repo, but has been tweaked for my needs, including support for Oh My Zsh and Homebrew . It also makes use of an adapted strap script . Note: If you do use strap, don't check in any script with tokens - they have been removed from this script and the user prompted to provide them! topical Everything's built around topic areas. If you're adding a new area to your forked dotfiles ? say, "Java" ? you can simply add a java directory and put files in there. Anything with an extension of .zsh will get automatically included into your shell. Anything with an extension of .symlink will get symlinked without extension into $HOME when you run script/bootstrap . components There's a few special files in the hierarchy. bin/ : Anything in bin/ will get added to your $PATH and be made available everywhere. topic/*.zsh : Any files ending in .zsh get loaded into your environment. topic/path.zsh : Any file named path.zsh is loaded first and is expected to setup $PATH or similar. topic/completion.zsh : Any file named completion.zsh is loaded last and is expected to setup autocomplete. topic/install.sh : Any file named install.sh is executed when you run script/install . To avoid being loaded automatically, its extension is .sh , not .zsh . 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 . install Run this: git clone https://github.com/krider2010/dotfiles.git ~ /.dotfiles cd ~ /.dotfiles ./strap.sh This will install various security things, homebrew, and then symlink the appropriate files in .dotfiles to your home directory. Everything is configured and tweaked within ~/.dotfiles . On !Mac (also !Windows - but none of this likely works on Windows), then you don't need strap so run... git clone https://github.com/krider2010/dotfiles.git ~ /.dotfiles cd ~ /.dotfiles script/install The main file you'll want to change right off the bat is zsh/zshrc.symlink , which sets up a few paths that'll be different on your particular machine. dot is a simple script that installs some dependencies, sets various macOS defaults, and so on. Tweak this script, and occasionally run dot from time to time to keep your environment fresh and up-to-date. You can find this script in bin/ . notes This does not include ssh config files, or pulling keys from 1Password, or vscode things, or ... These are for my own reference...
