Dotfiles

This is a collection of dotfiles that I use to configure my shell and other command-line tools. I use rcm to manage installation, which I should probably take advantage of a bit more for host or tag-specific configuration.

What's in here?

At any given, point, there is likely to be a mix of things that are critical to my every day workflow and things that I saw on the internet and thought were cool and would become my next favorite thing.

Stalwarts

  • zsh - Not because there's nothing better, but because I'm used to it. If I were really cool, I'd probably be using fish or something.
  • vim - As the kids would say, I'm mid at Vim. Everyone else seems to be using Code, especially at GitHub. I've tried to assimilate but I can't make it stick.
  • tmux - In some universe, I use arch with i3, but in this Universe I'm on a mac and I approximate this in my development with tmux and vim-tmux-navigator.
  • fzf - Interactive fuzzy finding that I primarily use via Vim but am trying to use more in other contexts as well.
  • ripgrep - Fast searching. Still the fastest? I don't know. I haven't kept up since 2019, but it's fast enough for me.
  • bat - A better cat that syntax highlights. I love using it to preview files in fzf.
  • gh - The GitHub CLI. I use it extensively for managing where git meets GitHub. It's also critical for using Codespaces, which you probably don't ever use unless you work for GitHub.
  • starship - Custom shell prompts, fast. More than I need or want, but it does something reasonable for me in every situation right out of the box and it looks pretty.

Experiments

  • eza - A replacement for ls that has pretty icons and colors. I was always an la -la person, but never enjoyed most of the metadata like permissions, user, size, etc. I'm sure I could get rid of those with ls, but eza made it easy and pretty. Not dialed in just yet.
  • delta - A replacement for git diff that shows changes in a pleasant way. I have it configred for side-by-side diffs, but I think it might be a little much.
  • yazi - A pretty looking terminal file manager that is mostly just demoware for me at this point. Probably won't stick.
  • thefuck - A way to quickly correct that last command I messed up.
