README

This repository contains my personal configuration files (dotfiles), organized and managed using GNU Stow. This setup allows for flexible and selective deployment of configurations across different machines by symlinking files from this repository into my home directory.

Purpose

The primary goal of this repository is to:

  • Provide a centralized and version-controlled backup of my most important configuration files.
  • Enable quick and easy setup of my preferred development environment on new systems.
  • Maintain a clear separation between my tracked dotfiles and application-specific caches or plugins.

Configuration Targets

This repository includes configurations for a variety of applications and tools, generally organized into individual Stow "packages" (directories). These cover areas such as:

  • Shells: Bash
  • Terminal Emulators: Gnome Terminal
  • Text Editors: Vim, Neovim
  • Version Control: Git
  • Terminal Multiplexers: Tmux
  • System Utilities: bpytop, fd, fzf, starship
  • Miscellaneous: General scripts, Ubuntu-specific settings, custom data files.

Plugin Management (Vim/Neovim)

For editors like Vim and Neovim, plugins are managed by their respective plugin managers (e.g., vim-plug for Vim, lazy.nvim for Neovim) and are not tracked within this Git repository. This keeps the dotfiles clean and focused solely on personal configuration. Plugins can be installed by running the appropriate command (e.g., :PlugInstall in Vim) after the main configuration is stowed.

Usage with Stow

To deploy a configuration package, simply navigate to the root of this repository (~/dotfiles/) and run stow <package_name>. For example:

cd ~/dotfiles
stow bash
stow vim
stow gnome-terminal
# ...and so on for other packages you wish to deploy.
