OS related setup scripts can be found in setup folder.

  • Sane defaults for Mac and debian/ubuntu

Setup

If you are using Mac OSX, this repo includes a script to install dependecies in this script.

curl -L http://git.io/3hD1Kw | sh

This script will help you add some defaults to your mac.

For other linux, checkout apt_init.sh file in setup folder, i have tried to keep this updated, but you'll the full list of packages in setup_mac.sh which you can install manually.

Installing dotfiles

Once you have installed basics software and libraries, you can install the dotfililes bu, clone this repo into ~/dotfiles and symlinking the files inside it to your home directory ~. Symlinking helps keep all your dotfiles maintainable inside a git repo, while being functional at the same time.

cd ~ && git clone --recursive [email protected]:theskumar/dotfiles.git && cd ~/dotfiles
# To create symbolic links in your home
sh bootstrap.sh  ## this will create the required symlinks
pip install -r requirements.pip

Not Exactly What You Want?

This is what I want. It might not be what you want. Don't worry, you have options:

Fork This

If you have differences in your preferred setup, I encourage you to fork this to create your own version. Once you have your fork working, let me know and I'll add it to a 'Similar dotfiles' list here. It's up to you whether or not to rename your fork.
