Dotfiles

My personal dotfiles for my development environment setup.

Screenshots

Overview

This repository contains configuration files for:

• Neovim (all Lua)
• Tmux
• Zsh (with Oh My Zsh)
• Espanso

Requirements

All of the below are installed automatically by ./deps.sh on macOS, and mostly automatically on Debian-based Linux (Raspberry Pi OS / Ubuntu / Debian) — GUI apps and the Nerd Font need a manual install on Linux for now.

Core Dependencies

• Git
• Neovim >= 0.9.0
• Tmux >= 3.0
• Zsh
• Python >= 3.8
• Rust (latest stable, for stylua)

Command Line Tools

• fzf (fuzzy finder)
• ripgrep (for file searching)
• fd (modern find replacement)
• bat (cat replacement)
• delta (git diff viewer)
• exa/eza (ls replacement)
• jq (JSON processor)

Fonts

• A Nerd Font (recommended: Liga SFMono Nerd Font)
• Powerline-compatible font

Installation

1. Clone into your preferred location:

   git clone https://github.com/dylandjian/dotfiles.git ~/Work/dotfiles
   cd ~/Work/dotfiles

2. Install dependencies (Homebrew/apt packages, Oh My Zsh + plugins, nvm, Rust, uv, nvim tooling). Idempotent — safe to re-run:

   ./deps.sh

3. Run the installer — it symlinks configs into place and backs up anything it would overwrite to ~/.dotfiles-backup-<timestamp>/:

   ./install.sh

4. Private overrides (API keys, work-specific env) go in ~/.zshrc.local — it's sourced at the end of .zshrc and gitignored.

Syncing changes back

If you tweak a config in place (e.g., ~/.config/nvim) and want to pull it into the repo, run:

./sync.sh

It replaces the live file with a symlink to the repo copy and auto-commits the change.

TODO

• Full Linux parity (GUI apps + Nerd Font auto-install)
• Support non-apt Linux distros in deps.sh (dnf, pacman)
• Add .gitconfig with delta config and theme
