Dotfiles

This repository contains my personal dotfiles tailored for macOS, aiming to provide a lightweight and customizable development environment.

Overview

• Set up zsh shell configuration.
• Install Homebrew and package installation with Brewfile.
• Set up mise, a polyglot version manager. Uses a zero-config approach where projects define their own tool versions.

Usage

To use these dotfiles on a new system:

1. Clone the repository to your home directory:

   git clone https://github.com/vincentlieu/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles

2. Install the dotfiles by running the bootstrap script:

   cd ~/.dotfiles
   make bootstrap

   If you encounter script permission errors during the bootstrap process, run the following command to fix them:

   make scripts_permissions

Maintenance

Health Check

Verify your dotfiles setup is working correctly:

make doctor

This will check that all essential tools are installed, dotfiles are properly symlinked, and mise tools are configured.

Symlinking

Re-apply or remove dotfile symlinks:

make link              # Apply symlinks
make unlink            # Remove symlinks

Homebrew Management

Check and maintain your Homebrew packages:

make brew-check          # Verify all Brewfile packages are installed
