Shared dotfiles between machines, managed by chezmoi
.
I'm building this repository in order to create a consistent shell environment on whichever machine i may be using. I'm currently learning to use vim so that I can be productive no-matter the environment/machine im currently working on.
My pipedream is to be able to work off an Android tablet for the ultimate ultra-light dev setup.
This is my standard set of applications + configuration and is designed to run on my OS's of choice.
This has been tested on:
- MacOS (Sonoma+)
- Ubuntu Linux 24.04+
- Windows 11 (WSL with Ubuntu 24.04)
It also has had limited testing on Android using the [Termux app located on F-Droid. This is still not in a working state as of yet however.
While the dotfiles repo is designed to be a one-command install, there are a few dependencies that must be setup first
If running on Linux you will need to install the following packages:
zsh
- should be installed and set as your default shell.git
- for cloning the repocurl
orwget
- for downloading the install script
A quick one liner to install all the above dependencies is below
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install zsh git wget curl && sudo chsh -s /usr/bin/zsh $(whoami)
You'll need to restart your system afterwards to have zsh
as your default shell. Otherwise, you can run
zsh
manually in your terminal to switch (select the option to create an empty ~/.zshrc
file) and
continue with the installation.
If running on a Mac you will need to install the Xcode command line tools
xcode-select --install
If running on Windows you will need to install WSL and Ubuntu 24.04. You will also need to install the following packages:
zsh
git
curl
orwget
Finally, if running on Android, you will need to install the Termux app from F-Droid. You will also need to install the following packages:
zsh
git
curl
orwget
Install everything with:
sh -c "$(curl -fsLS https://raw.githubusercontent.com/twitchel/dotfiles/master/install.sh)"
sh -c "$(wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/twitchel/dotfiles/master/install.sh)"
There are some config flags you can set via environment variables
DOTFILES_BRANCH=feature/git-branch-for-testing
DOTFILES_DEBUG=true
DOTFILES_VERBOSE=true
You will need to restart your terminal session afterwards.
