Dotfiles

This repository contains my configuration files for Zsh, Vim, tmux, Kitty, and Emacs. Follow the steps below to set up your environment on macOS or Linux.

---

1. Prerequisites & Package Installation

macOS (using Homebrew)

1. Install Homebrew (if you don’t have it):

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

2. Install core packages:

   brew update
   brew install \
     zsh \
     tmux \
     vim \
     emacs --cask \
     kitty

Linux (Debian/Ubuntu)

1. Install core packages:

   sudo apt update
   sudo apt install -y \
     zsh \
     tmux \
     vim \
     emacs \
     kitty

On other distributions, replace apt with your package manager (pacman, dnf, etc.).

2. Shell & Editor Bootstrapping

Zsh & Oh My Zsh

1. Install Oh My Zsh:

   sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

2. Install plugins:

   git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions \
     ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions
   git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git \
     ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting

3. Install Powerlevel10k:

   git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git \
     ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

4. Make Zsh your default shell:

   chsh -s "$(which zsh)"

Vim & Vim-Plug

1. Install Vim-Plug:

   curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs \
     https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

2. On first Vim launch, run:

   :PlugInstall

tmux & TPM (tmux Plugin Manager)

1. Clone TPM (if your .tmux.conf expects it):

   git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.tmux/plugins/tpm

2. In tmux, press your prefix (e.g. Ctrl-a) then I (capital i) to install plugins.

Emacs & Packages

1. Open Emacs; use-package declarations will auto-install missing packages.

2. If needed, run:

   M-x package-refresh-contents RET
   M-x package-install-selected-packages RET

Kitty

No additional bootstrapping is required—your kitty.conf will be symlinked below.

3. Clone & Symlink Dotfiles

# Clone your repo
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles

# Zsh & Vim
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/.zshrc ~/.zshrc
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/.vimrc ~/.vimrc

# tmux, Kitty, Emacs (directories)
mkdir -p ~/.config
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/tmux       ~/.config/tmux
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/kitty      ~/.config/kitty
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/emacs      ~/.config/emacs

---

4. Post-Installation

• Restart your terminal or run:

  source ~/.zshrc

• Launch tmux and press <PREFIX> + I to fetch plugins.

• Open Emacs; it will install and configure all packages automatically.
