You may also be interested in Flare's Scripts, a collection of shell and NodeJS (check that project's readme!) scripts I use dozens of times an hour.
Based on a lot of discoveries from GitHub Does dotfiles, this is my repo for my dotfiles. I've also included a setup script, mostly for personal use, that will bring a brand new Mac from stock to stylish with minimal messing around.
bash -c "$(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Flare576/dotfiles/main/setup/OSX/mac.sh)"
Or a new Steam Deck
bash -c "$(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Flare576/dotfiles/main/setup/NIX/steamdeck.sh)"
Or a new Ubuntu Linux
bash -c "$(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Flare576/dotfiles/main/setup/NIX/ubuntu.sh)"
If not setting up a new machine I git clone directly into ~ and run the script for the thing(s) I want to setup:
sh dotfiles/setup/secureRepo.sh # You should absolutely run this file to help prevent leaking secrets
sh dotfiles/setup/linkFiles.sh # Symlinks files to ~
sh dotfiles/setup/scripts.sh # pull scripts and sets up paths: see Flare57/scripts repo
sh dotfiles/setup/vim.sh # Yes, this sets up vim
sh dotfiles/setup/omz.sh # Oh My Zshell goes deliciously with Zsh
A quick note about secrets and private info: This project recommends keeping sensitive information in a set of
.doNotCommitfiles in the$HOME/dotfiles/.doNotCommit.dfolder. They do not reside directly in$HOMEbecause scripts in thedotfilesproject can and do edit them.
If I also want to install all the apps I use frequently, I'll run
sh dotfiles/setup/homebrew.sh # Check the script for details
sh dotfiles/setup/OSX/casks.sh # Check the script for details
You can read each of the scripts for details of how/what they do, but as far as what YOU can do, here's a breakdown:
There's a lot going on here, I know. Looking at all these lists is enough to make most folks close the browser tab, but bear with me for a moment.
The most important part of a program/tool is, in my opinion, getting around. For my configs, I've settled on a "vim-style" approach to this, which means using H, J, K, and L to move Left, Down, Up, and Right. Combining these movements with different modifiers makes up the bulk of getting around!
| Modifier | App | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Ctrl | Vim | Moves between Buffers |
| Shift | Vim | Moves between Tabs |
| Alt | tmux | Moves between panes |
| Shift+Alt | tmux | Moves between Windows |
As a bonus: _ and | plus the above modifiers also splits/creates the thing it navigates
horizontally or vertically!
- Solarized - Beauty!
- vim-airline - Fast and flexible status line
- vim-json - Make JSON better!
- typescript-vim - Make Typescript... less awful
- ag.vim - Silver Searcher... IN VIM
- ctrlp.vim - Fuzzy file finder!
- z.vim - The power of Z-script in Vim
- undotree - Makes traversing the undo tree not suck
- gutentags + tagabar - Index your source code and <Ctrl-]> your way to happiness
- MergeTool - Makes
git mergetoolway more useful - vim-surround - easily change '' to "" to
csthen the thing that's there, and the thing you want- (e.g. 'hello world' to "hello world", do
cs'")
- (e.g. 'hello world' to "hello world", do

ZSH has a command-line editor functionality,
which can be set to vim-mode but
defaults to emacs. It's pretty nice, but I've become used to some of the emacs features. To bring
them back (and to make it act more like my vim), these changes were made
