dotfiles

Initial bootstrapping

Install iterm2: https://iterm2.com/ Install brew: https://brew.sh/

Install necessary tools with brew:

brew install coreutils eza direnv git hub node python@3.12 pipx ripgrep ruby tig tmux tree vim zsh openssl@1.1

Clone this repository

git clone git@github.com:felixedel/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles

Symlink the necessary files into your HOME directory:

ln -s ~/.dotfiles/git/.gitconfig ~/.gitconfig
ln -s ~/.dotfiles/git/.gitignore_global ~/.gitignore_global
ln -s ~/.dotfiles/tig/.tigrc ~/.tigrc
ln -s ~/.dotfiles/tmux/.tmux.conf ~/.tmux.conf
ln -s ~/.dotfiles/vim/.vimrc ~/.vimrc

ZSH

Install oh-my-zsh: https://ohmyz.sh/

Symlink the zsh config file into your HOME directory:

ln -s ~/.dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc ~/.zshrc

In case you created the symlink already before installing oh-my-zsh, the file will be overwritten by the install procedure. Thus, you have to create it again.

Clone necessary zsh plugin repositories

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting

git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions

Link the custom ZSH theme to the oh-my-zsh themes directory like so:

ln -s ~/.dotfiles/zsh/themes/felixedel.zsh-theme ~/.oh-my-zsh/themes/

tmux

Install tmux plugin manager: https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm and install all plugins via prefix + I.
