- for instances ( Watch for Sub-directories ) 

    - if any subdirectory eg: `~/.config` dont exist in $HOME then `mkdir .config`

    - other config files that don't exist in $HOME atm, should not have any problems

- running `stow .` should be enough

##### However, for assurance

- run stow commands like below for each directory in dotfiles 

- re-check if the symlinks are correct for each sub-directories and files

```bash

stow -t ~ starship wezterm tmux

#or run them separately

stow -t ~ nvim

stow -t ~ zsh
