# dotfiles

My personal **minimalist** configuration files.  The main focus is in security and simplicity, so only known softwares are used and hacks are avoided.



## Requirements

I use the following directories to better organize my work:



- `$HOME/Projects`: Ongoing project files and folders

- `$HOME/.local/bin`: Standalone binaries, sourced by `$PATH`



>[!NOTE]

>See `.zshenv` for more information on directories.



Besides the directories, I configure Zsh to source [auto-suggestions](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions) and [syntax highlighting](https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting) for a better experience.  But if these packages are not installed, nothing should happen.



Finally, I use and recommend [GNU Stow](https://www.gnu.org/software/stow/) for managing dotfiles and it can be easily installed with most package managers around there.



## Installation

First, make sure the needed directories are in place:



```sh

cd

mkdir -p .cache/zsh .local/bin Projects

```

Now, proceed with installation:



```sh

cd  Projects

git clone https://github.com/lopes/dotfiles

cd dotfiles

stow --verbose --adopt . --target=$HOME

```



>[!WARNING]

>The previous snippet considers a fresh install.  If you have any configurations in place, use it with caution because the `--adopt` will replace these files by your current ones.



>[!NOTE]

>GNU Stow allows you to simulate an installation with the `--simulate` option.



>[!IMPORTANT]

>Git ignores all files but the ones explicitly declared in `.gitignore` file.  To track new files, they must be added with: `git add -f PATH`.
