dotfiles

My dotfiles synced from localhost and remote machines.

Install

git clone <this repo> && cd dotfiles
make install        # base machine (servers too)
make install-full   # desktop: base + GUI apps (firefox, element)

make install runs, in order:

1. install-deps — Nerd Fonts (curl installer)
2. install-nix — nix then the CLI tool set from flake.nix (nix profile add .#cli, includes stow)
3. install-dotfiles — submodules, stow, tmux plugins (via TPM), and a .zshrc_local seed

Desktop machines run make install-full (= install + install-apps), which additionally adds the GUI package (nix profile add .#apps). Every target is idempotent — re-running upgrades the corresponding profile.

Everything tool-like — including stow itself — comes from the flake.

Layout

config/<tool>/   one stow package per tool, mirroring the tool's
                 full target layout: home dotfiles AND XDG subdirs

One stow root (config/), one target ($HOME): stow strips the package dir from the link path and creates intermediate dirs, so

config/zsh/.zshrc                -> ~/.zshrc
config/zsh/.config/zsh/*.zsh     -> ~/.config/zsh/*.zsh
config/starship/.config/…        -> ~/.config/starship/…
config/ghostty/.config/…         -> ~/.config/ghostty/…

The Makefile runs stow * (every top-level dir is a package), installs the tmux plugins with TPM, and seeds .zshrc_local.

Machine/personal values never live in the repo: they go in _local files next to the stowed config (~/.zshrc_local, ~/.gitconfig_local), included by the stowed file and created per host.
