# Dotfiles

## What are the dotfiles?
> **Dotfiles** are used to customize your system.
> The “dotfiles” name is derived from the configuration files in Unix-like
> systems that start with a dot (e.g. `.bash_profile` and `.gitconfig`).
> For normal users, this indicates these are not regular documents,
> and by default are hidden in directory listings.
> For power users, however, **they are a core tool belt**.

So, in other words, this is a repository which contains my configurations for
the programs in my core tool belt.

## Getting started
The goal is to be able to run the installation without any requirements.
The installer is supposed to take care of everything in advance,
to automate the processes.

### Instructions for Linux (CURENNTLY OUTDATED)
[Installer file code - `./Linux/install.sh`](./Linux/install.sh)
:information_source: Currently optimized for these distributions:
- 
Debian
- 
Ubuntu
- 
Arch Linux
### Step by step guide for Linux
1. **Download the installation file.**\
Type in your shell:
```sh
curl --remote-name "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xeho91/.dotfiles/main/Linux/install.sh"
```
2. **Read and inspect the code.**\
For example with this command:
```sh
cat install.sh
```
:exclamation: **NOTE**: You can modify the configuration with any text
editor, if you have the knowledge.\
_(See the `Variables for installation configuration` section in the
installer's code, near the beginning of file)_
3. **Make the file executable**.\
Change the file permissions with one of these two commands:
```sh
chmod 700 install.sh
# or
chmod +x install.sh
```
4. **Run this installation file.**\
Type in your shell:
```sh
./install.sh
```
:exclamation: **NOTE**: Don't forget the `./` at the beginning.
That's how you run executable files in Linux.

### Instructions for Windows 10
[Installer file code - `./Windows/install.ps1`](./Windows/install.ps1)
### Step by step guide for Windows 10
1. **Run the PowerShell `as administrator`.**
2. **Download the installation file.**\
Type in your shell:
```powershell
curl --remote-name "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xeho91/.dotfiles/main/Windows/install.ps1"
```
3. **Read and inspect the code.**\
For example with this command:
```powershell
Get-Content install.ps1
```
:exclamation: **NOTE**: You can modify the configuration with any text
editor, if you have the knowledge.\
_(See the `Variables for installation configuration` section in the
installer's code, near the beginning of file)_
4. **Run this installation file.**\
Type in your shell:
```powershell
.\install.ps1

:exclamation: **NOTE**: Don't forget the `.\` at the beginning.
That's how you run executable files in Windows.
