Inspired by Fardjad' dotfiles, this repository contains my no-frills dotfiles for macOS and Linux.
It comes with an automated installer script and leverages homebrew to install packages on macOS and various Linux distributions.
Config files are crafted for my own use and focus mostly on Web Development.
Dotfiles are used to customize your system. The "dotfiles" name is derived from the configuration files in Unix-like systems that start with a dot (e.g.
.bash_profileand.gitconfig). For normal users, this indicates these are not regular documents, and by default are hidden in directory listings. For power users, however, they are a core tool belt. -- Lars Kappert
