# Spotlight's dotfiles
On devices I consider personal, I like having a similar style within zsh. I heavily utilize macOS, BSD and various Linux, so it's important that these dotfiles work consistently across them all.
I heavily utilize macOS, BSD and various Linux distributions, so it's important that these dotfiles work consistently across them all.
I make heavy usage of Git submodules. Occasionally, these are updated. Please ensure when pulling my dotfiles that you also `git submodule update`.
As such, I utilize [Nix](https://nixos.org) with [home-manager](https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager).
## Expectations
Please don't consider this a great basis for your own configuration - it works well for me!
As such, some things may make assumptions you would not as well :)
## Installation
```
git clone --recursive https://git.joscomputing.space/spotlight/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cp ~/.dotfiles/dotfilesrc ~/.dotfilesrc
pip3 install dotfiles
dotfiles --sync --force
```
This may require things to be adapted based on the platform.
This creates a symbolic link from any file or directory within `~/.dotfiles/` to their respective place in `~/`. I prefer the `.dotfilesrc` to be managed as well.
```
git clone https://git.joscomputing.space/spotlight/dotfiles ~/.config/home-manager
# Or as otherwise described for flake usage within the Home Manager manual:
# https://nix-community.github.io/home-manager/index.html#sec-flakes-standalone
nix run home-manager/master -- init --switch
```
