@ikalnytskyi's dotfiles

In the Unix world programs are commonly configured in two different ways, via command line arguments or text based configuration files. Programs with many options like window managers or text editors are configured on a per-user basis with files in your home directory (~). In unix like operating systems any file or directory name that starts with a period or full stop character (.) is considered hidden, and in a default view will not be displayed. Thus the name dotfiles.
