Every day I am using vim, and I feel like I can learn new things every day. So please don't wonder or judge why this repo has many commits.

• homebrew (pkgs manager)
• nvim (code editor)
• tmux (term multiplexer)
• ghostty and wezterm for terminal emulator
• aerospace is a window manager for macos (i3 like)
• zshell
• GNU stow is a symlink management tool

Note: Some tools I also recommend: lazydocker, bat, fzf, autocompletion, ... (can be installed with brew)

• You need a package manager, if you are using macos, homebrew is a good one.

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

brew install nvim
brew install tmux
brew install --cask ghostty
brew install --cask wezterm
brew install stow
brew install zsh

With stow you can create symlink from a directory to a target directory. So ideally, all settings shoul be in a directory, for example ~/dotfiles

cd
mkdir dotfiles

After that, create dir tree structure for each tool with same structure as in its docs. For instance, with nvim, you should place your configs in ~/.config/nvim

-> Create dir structure like this in dotfiles

cd ~/dotfiles
mkdir -p nvim/.config/nvim

Do the same steps with the other tools. Then run this to create symlinks

stow nvim
stow zsh
stow aerospace
stow tmux
stow wezterm
stow ghostty

for more information about gnustow: link

• You need Iterm/Wezeterm,...(not default macos terminal) because this terminal can not represent right theme
• Nerd font for view icon, text, folder, ... link
• Need to install delve for debugging: brew install delve
• Need ripgrep for telescope live grep

brew install ripgrep

• Need wget to help mason to download zip,... from internet

brew install wget

Use the Makefile in others/ for easy management:

cd ~/dotfiles/others

# Create/update Brewfile and lock file
make brew-lock

# Install packages from lock file (on new system)
make brew-install

# Check if installed packages match lock file
make brew-check

# Remove packages not in Brewfile
make brew-clean

# Show all available commands
make help

Linux

• skip un-supported packs

brew bundle check --file=Brewfile
sed -i '/cask /d' Brewfile

• I use lazy to manage plugins, you can use packer
• To sync or update plugins

:Lazy sync
:Lazy update

• I think it's better if we keep our settings at a simple level, don't set many things that you rarely use or you can achieve this purpose by some simple commands.

• Check log lsp:

nvim ~/.local/state/nvim/lsp.log

or

:LspLog

• Vim help is so helpful. Use it as much as you can example

:help Mason

• Local models: use ollama ollama

• Code suggestion: use super Maven supermaven

• My nvim - llms integration settings are in: llms

• symlink for docker.sock (use test container or act)

  sudo ln -s ~/.colima/default/docker.sock /var/run/docker.sock
