This repository contains the majority of application or OS configuration files
2020-07-02 11:29:01 -05:00
I use on a daily basis. I keep them public in an effort to inform others who may
not know either how to go about organizing such files or to learn how to achieve
certain behavior in their software and to have quick and easy access for myself
when setting up a new machine.

## Setup
2020-07-02 11:29:01 -05:00
**NOTE**: Unless you're me, you probably shouldn't use my setup exactly. Just
take chunks you like instead! Backup your files first!
2020-07-02 11:29:38 -05:00
```sh
2020-07-02 11:30:09 -05:00
git clone 'https://git.lyte.dev/lytedev/dotfiles.git' '~/.config/dotfiles'
cd '~/.config/dotfiles' && ./setup.bash # follow the instructions!

## Improvements

+ Vulkan is broken on my desktop
2020-06-15 11:44:00 -05:00

2020-06-15 11:44:45 -05:00
+ Better/more secure remote management configuration in dotfiles? [1][1]
2020-07-02 11:29:01 -05:00

2019-03-06 12:34:21 -06:00
for the rare time I'm in a file manager or for opening easily from
the browser.
2020-07-02 11:29:01 -05:00
+ Unify all the common variables... somehow? (and use templates and `envsubst`?)
+ [Vimux](https://github.com/benmills/vimux)?
+ Custom Iosevka font with kitty-compatible ligatures?
+ Setup network file share?
+ Investigate systemd services that may help with various tasks (homed, etc.)
