🔶 Introduction

My personal Linux environment, configuration files, scripts, and small utilities.

I built over the years around a keyboard-driven workflow for users who mostly live on the terminal. Focused on efficiency and tools (no ricing), with visual improvements only applicable in i3.

Build what you need,
not what they say you need.
A few but good tools guide your way,
let the rest fade away.

Don't chase the perfection,
nor worry about the trend.
Just fix what annoys you,
and make it your friend.

Don't build for appearance,
nor for the show,
build something that fits you,
and quietly grow.

No menus to wander,
no fancy UIs,
z knows where you've been,
it'll take you there fast,
and won't ask why.

And when someone asks,
"Why do it this way?"
You shrug, "Works for me!"
Then go about your day.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

🔶 How to install

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/leonmavr/dots.git
cd dots

Bootstrap

⚠ THESE SCRIPTS WILL OVERWRITE YOUR LOCAL ~/.config! RUN THEM RESPONSIBLY. ⚠

The bootstrap/ directory contains installers for little programs I commonly use. No sudo is required - it will install all pre-built versions of my tools in ~/.local/bin and the post-installer will make sure that PATH points to it.

Run all of the tool installers and then the post-install script, which builds the bash environment (such as prompt and aliases):

cd bootstrap
for f in *.sh; do
    [ -f "$f" ] && bash "$f"
done
cd post_install
bash post_install.sh

Neovim

The Neovim (nvim) configuration lives in .config/nvim.

Before starting nvim, install its external prerequisites.

Arch-based systems:

sudo pacman -S neovim git ripgrep fd clang python python-pip \
    nodejs npm make zathura latexmk

Debian/Ubuntu-based systems:

sudo apt install neovim git ripgrep fd-find clang python3 python3-pip \
    nodejs npm make zathura latexmk

The configuration also uses pyright, black, flake8, and debugpy for Python development:

sudo npm install -g pyright
pip install black flake8 debugpy

Once the prerequisites are installed, nvim will already have its config prepared from the bootstrap. So just launch it:

nvim

On the first launch, Packer is automatically cloned into nvim's data directory if not already installed. The configuration then syncs the plugins automatically.

If the plugins do not install automatically, run:

:PackerSync

That's it, your Neovim setup should be ready to go!
