🛠️ Dotfiles & Rice

This repo exists to save the configuration and image of my working machine — so I can rebuild it later if needed. Feel free to use anything you need.

🍺 I moved from Nix package manager back to Brew (and its Brewfile) because of the complexity Nix was bringing to the system.

🗺️ Instruction

1. Copy directories .environment and .config into your home directory (~)

2. Run these commands:

   # Install Brew (if not already present)
   /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
   echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> ~/.zprofile
   echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> ~/.bashrc
   eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
   
   # Move to the necessary directory
   cd ~/.environment/brew/
   
   # Apply bundle (Brewfile) configuration & Remove odd binaries
   brew bundle install
   brew bundle cleanup --global --force

3. Later aliases from the fish config become available.

Path hierarchy

1. /opt/homebrew/bin — system-wide homebrew packages
2. $HOME/.environment/defaults/bin — custom binaries I compiled and stored myself
