<h1>Daniel's Dotfiles</h1>
|
|
|
|
My personal Linux dotfiles.
|
|
|
|
I use Arch btw.
|
|
|
|
The root of this repo is equivalent to my `$HOME` directory.

## This Repository
|
|
|
|
I use this repository to sync and backup my dotfiles. I use the excellent [yadm]
|
|
to manage the repo, and [autoyadm](https://git.sr.ht/~ficd/autoyadm) to automate
|
|
committing & pushing on a timer.
|
|
|
|
Therefore, these configs are:
|
|
|
|
- Always up to date.
|
|
- But potentially broken on any given commit (due to incomplete configs being
|
|
pushed).
|
|
|
|
If you see a file with a weird name, like `config##hostname.dbox`, it's
|
|
leveraging `yadm`'s alternate files feature; the program will automatically
|
|
symlink the appropriate file to its destination depending on what comes after
|
|
the `##`. This is also how templates are handled (see [niri](./.config/niri))
|
|
for an example of this.
|
|
|
|
### Note On Keybindings
|
|
|
|
I use Colemak-DH, which is a non-qwerty keyboard layout. Because I came up using
|
|
Vim, I'm used to `hjkl` for movement. However, on this layout, `mnei` occupies
|
|
the `hjkl` position. Thus, in most applications, I change the bindings so
|
|
they're more comfortable for me to use. Please keep this in mind when copying my
|
|
configs.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Notes
|
|
|
|
### Kakoune
|
|
|
|
I've been configuring and enjoying Kakoune as my text editor lately. It's highly
|
|
personalized, so I don't recommend copying it, but feel free to peruse for
|
|
inspiration.
|
|
|
|
### Helix
|
|
|
|
I used Helix for quite a few months. I had implemented some cool functionality
|
|
using calls to external scripts; these may be of interest to you.
|
|
|
|
### Niri
|
|
|
|
I use Niri as my Window manager. I've written quite a few custom scripts that
|
|
work with Niri; you'll find references to them in the configuration, and the
|
|
code for most is available in my [utils collection](https://sr.ht/~ficd/utils).
