ronniehicks' Dotfiles

This is Ronnie Hicks' personal dotfiles repository using Dotbot.

To get started configuring your own dotfiles with Dotbot check out this template (or fork it).

Usage

This repository uses a combination of methods derived from various other Dotbot users to setup my machines in a number of situations. But the base expectation is that you clone this repository and run

./install

This will setup what I consider the base necessities for how I tend to work across multiple machines. After having run the primary installation use the meta profiles and configs to customize the machine further.

For example, to setup my WSL2 (Ubuntu) Windows machine I run the following commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

sudo apt install git # just to make sure git is present

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/ronniehicks/dotfiles.git

cd dotfiles
./install

./install-profile wsl
# or ./install-standalone git

Inspiration

See the below repositories for inspirational ideas while using Dotbot.

And there are about 700 more here.

If you're using Dotbot and you'd like to include a link to your dotfiles here as an inspiration to others, please submit a pull request.
