Welcome to my dotfiles repository! These configuration files help me maintain a consistent environment across different systems. Feel free to explore and use anything you find useful.

Make sure to have the following tools installed before proceeding:

• rofi
• polybar
• playerctl
• kitty
• lazygit
• i3
• fish
• espanso
• starship
• neovim with astronvim
• A nerd font (e.g., JetBrainsMono)

Clone this repository and navigate into it:

git clone https://github.com/lewisblackburn/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles

My dotfiles are organized using a simple approach. I use a .gitignore file to ignore every file by default. To add specific files, use the following:

git add (file/folder) -f

Note (to self): Be cautious with nested Git repositories, such as the one for astronvim. I have had to put this in a separate git repo. Use git diff to review changes before pushing.

• Rofi: Custom configuration for the Rofi application launcher.
• Polybar: Configurations for the polybar status bar.
• Playerctl: Setup for controlling multimedia players from the command line.
• Kitty: Configuration for the kitty terminal emulator.
• Lazygit: Customizations for the lazygit Git client.
• i3: Window manager configurations.
• Fish: Shell configurations for the Fish shell.
• Espanso: Configuration for the espanso text expander.
• Starship: Custom prompt configuration for the Starship shell prompt.
• Neovim/Astronvim: Vim configurations with the astronvim plugin.
• Nerd Font: Use a nerd font like JetBrainsMono for enhanced typography.

There is a lot of bloat in this repo. I am really just messing around with i3. I'm liking it so far, however, I can see myself endlessly configuring this instead of donig something productive.
