cjtapper's dotfiles

My dotfiles for terminal-based development (mostly Python) and computer fun times.

Right now I'm running Linux Mint and just using the default Cinnamon window manager, though I have used i3 extensively in the past. Most, if not all, of the configuration here should be platform agnostic.

Dependencies

• GNU Stow to symlink the dotfiles and scripts into the user's home directory
• See Tools section for everything else

Setup

$ make install

Tools

I haven't automated installation of these yet, but you get the idea.

• alacritty for my fast and simple terminal emulator
• bat as a cat alternative with syntax highlighting (and more).
• eza - a modern alternative to ls
• fish - I just prefer the UX over bash and zsh (and all the other alternatives)
  • fisher as plugin manager
• fd - fast alternative to find with better UX.
• neovim
• ripgrep - blazing-fast alternative to grep for faster searching
• starship - super fast and configurable shell prompt with very sensible defaults.
• zoxide for smarter cd directory changing.
• zellij - modern alternative to tmux with (IMO) easier to grok keybindings and modes.
