My Dotfiles

Everything is managed via gnu stow. The tl;dr is that relative to the dotfiles directory (that you should clone to ~/.dotfiles it will symlink the directory you name up one directory. Different python, node, terraform versions are all managed with mise

For example, zsh/ contains .zshrc so to deploy your zsh folder using stow you simply run

stow zsh

and for neovim

stow nvim

Creates the symlinks all the way to ~/.config/nvim/*
