I made a video series about Dotfiles! 🐧✨

I love working on the command line and have been actively maintaining my Dotfiles for almost 6 years now, I wanted to share my passion with everyone.

So, I made a video series about setting up a command line based dev environment on a cloud Linux system, which can be easily replicated anywhere.

In the series I go over setting up various command line tools like zsh, tmux and neovim for a powerful and flexible dev experience.

What's this

My personal configs, passionately crafted for setting up an optimal CLI dev experience across platforms.

Inspiration

Hours and nights spent on the terminal, willingness to improve.

Setup

I made a recording for setting this up on an Ubuntu system

git clone https://github.com/2kabhishek/dots2k
cd dots2k

# Menu based interactive setup, recommended for beginners
./setup.sh

# Setup everything unattended
./setup.sh -a
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

If you plan to use this without using the setup script, make sure to install the recommended packages in the setup.sh script.

Git Setup

Important

Make sure to change the user.name and user.email in the ~/.gitconfig file with your own or use git config --global user.name "Your Name"

I use GPG signing for commits, check this for setting it up, or use git config --global commit.gpgSign false to disable it.

Fonts

I'll recommend Nerd Fonts. I'm using FiraCode 3.11.
