dotfiles lfg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This setup is based on the Fish shell, WezTerm terminal emulator, and Neovim editor. My DE is currently KDE Plasma 6 on Arch Linux.
First, clone into ~/.dotfiles:
git clone --recurse-submodules -j8 git@github.com:mattyoung101/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
The dotfiles are managed using rcm and
Just, which you can install using something like yay -S rcm just.
In addition, you will need the following tools/libraries/languages/frameworks installed on your system (not yet an exhaustive list):
- Python 3, including venv
- Rust
- Golang
- fish shell
- zoxide
- nvm.fish
- WezTerm
- LazyGit
- fzf
- ripgrep
- tree-sitter-cli
- ...some more I probably forgot and will discover on my next fresh install
First, confirm what would be installed using just show.
Install using just install.
Warning
No backups are currently taken. While I've had no issues so far, double check your outputs and
probably backup ~/.config before running.
Warning
When I delete a neovim plugin, you will need to rm -rf ~/.config/nvim and run just update
again.
Uninstall using just uninstall (untested).
As described below, the terminal background catboy artworks are kept as a private submodule in
config/dotfiles-artwork for copyright reasons.
The rcm tool is able to handle host-specific dotfiles as well. Because some of these contain sensitive
system information, they are also kept in a private submodule as host-serpent (workstation) or host-gecko
(laptop). These point to the same dotfiles-hostspecific repo, but on different branches.
You should also probably edit these directly as a submodule, making sure to checkout master.
Bump submodules with just update or just updatepush.
Neovim config also used to be a submodule, but I merged it in here instead.
The cute catboys I use as terminal backgrounds are drawn by talented artists on DeviantArt or Pixiv. Based on DeviantArt's copyright policy, it would be copyright infringement for be to upload them to this repo, especially since I had to edit some to make them have a dark theme. Plus, even if you put copyright aside, the artists may not want my god-awful edits uploaded here and I totally respect that.
Instead, currently these artworks are kept in a separate, private repo for personal use only, which to my understanding should fall under fair use (I'm not and would never be a lawyer, ick).
However, the artwork I used is linked below, so you can recreate it yourself if you'd like.

used when necessary to attach non-rectangular character portraits to, basically to pad out the editor with a background so it's not all white. I usually attach the portrait on the right hand side of the screen.
