How this repos config deployment works

Using ./import-configs (pull local configs into directory) and ./install-configs (install configs from directory in the system) you can get/set config files based on what you are currently using (listed in used-apps). The used-apps file lists categories defined in mappings, for example the category zsh is defined as:

[zsh]
.zshrc
.zsh

Which means, that if zsh is listed in used-apps on import/install the file ~/.zshrc and the directory ~/.zsh/ will be copied.

How this repos app install works

Using ./apps-install you can install all apps that you are currently using. These are listed in used-apps, the categories of which are defined in apps. For example the NetworkManager category:

[nm]
networkmanager NetworkManger
systemd:NetworkManager

Which if nm is in used-apps will run yay -S networkmanager and sudo systemctl enable NetworkManager after the install. The first argument is the package, the rest is description. Prefixes (like systemd:), are for doing non-pacman stuff (npm install, etc.).

Warning: Not all configs in the repo are actively being used. See 'how it works' above.
