Yup, these are my dotfiles, they set things up just the way I want 'em.

They've been around the block and have taken many different forms over the years, including using multiple different dotfile management tools (even Nix and home-manager at one point), but I just keep coming back to this approach of simple files and symlinks managed by GNU Stow.

These dotfiles are organised in a format that makes them very easy to manage using GNU Stow:

$ git clone /~https://github.com/daviesjamie/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
$ cd ~/.dotfiles

# Install neovim configuration
$ stow nvim

# Uninstall neovim configuration
$ stow -D nvim

# Reinstall neovim configuration (useful for removing obsolete symlinks)
$ stow -R nvim

If you don't want to install Stow, manually symlinking them into place should also suffice:

$ ln -s ~/.dotfiles/alacritty/.config/alacritty.toml ~/.config/alacritty.toml
