dotfiles

My personal collection of dotfiles for macOS development setup.

Requirements

• macOS – This setup is designed specifically for macOS
• zsh – Unix shell (included with macOS)
• git – version control
• Homebrew – package manager for macOS

Installation

1. Clone the repo into your home directory:

   git clone [email protected]:vanbouzoukas/dotfiles.git ~/Developer/dotfiles

2. Install Homebrew if you haven't already:

   /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

3. Install all packages and applications from the Brewfile:

   cd ~/Developer/dotfiles
   brew bundle

4. Point to the relevant dotfiles in your local config.

   .zshrc

   Source your custom shell configuration:

   source ~/Developer/dotfiles/.zshrc

   .gitconfig

   Include your Git config and set your user identity:

   [include]
       path = ~/Developer/dotfiles/.gitconfig
   
   [user]
       name = Your Name
       email = [email protected]
