This repository contains my personal macOS dotfiles for programs including Kitty, Doom Emacs, tmux, zsh, skhd and yabai.

My intention is mainly to use this repo as a backup and a knowledge system of sorts with regards to my configuration.

These files were designed for use on my system, which is a 2020 M1 MacBook Air running MacOS Ventura. They may not work for your system.

You can find my macOS configuration here.

The Emacs fork that I use is a fork called emacs-plus, which was designed for use with MacOS.

I use the following command to install it.

brew install emacs-plus@28 --with-no-titlebar --with-no-frame-refocus --with-native-comp

Breakdown of flags:

• A cleaner experience with --with-no-titlebar.
• Prevent annoying macOS frame refocus behavior with --with-no-frame-refocus.
• Use --with-native-comp for overall better performance.

Doom Emacs is an Emacs distribution, which provides a plethora of useful features, but is mainly famous for its extensive support for more Vim-like behaviors and keybindings, which is why I use it.

I am in the process of working on a vanilla configuration, in an attempt to make my workflow more predictable, but if you come from a Vim background and would like a soft landing into Emacs, I would definitely recommend you give it a shot.

You can view my current configuration here.

The comfortability I have achieved using Karthink’s LaTeX Input for Impatient Scholars is pretty amazing.

It currently somewhat break my config, however, so I’m going to want to make some fixes to it eventually.

Not yet.

Since I’m on macOS, I use brew.

Brewfile is a WIP.

My neovim config is a mess since I barely use it anymore, with apparent breaking, it generally works pretty well however.

I’ll probably want to get it fixed, eventually.
