Dotfiles

Feel free to take what you want, but I would advice against blindly installing without reviewing.

[!NOTE] These dotfiles complex due to specific requirements (see below).

---

Requirements

1. Cross-Platform Compatibility
   Tools must work seamlessly on Windows, macOS, and Linux for a consistent experience.

2. Performance-First Approach
   Preference for modern, high-performance tools (e.g., Rust-based tools like uutils) that replace core utilities across major platforms.

3. Easy Installation
   Tools should have minimal setup time. Examples include dotter for dotfile management and cargo-make for setup tasks.

How to Install

1. Install Rust

   • Windows:

     curl -o rustup-init.exe https://win.rustup.rs
     rustup-init.exe

   • UNIX:

     curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

2. Verify Rust Installation
   Check if Rust is installed correctly:

   rustc --version
   cargo --version

3. Install Cargo-Make

   cargo install cargo-make

4. Clone This Repo

   git clone [email protected]:msetsma/.dotfiles.git
   cd .dotfiles

5. Run the Makefile
   Use cargo-make to execute tasks from the Makefile.toml:

   cargo make init

Gotchas

Installing a Compiler Suite

To ensure tools work correctly, you’ll need a suitable compiler suite:

• Linux: GCC or Clang
• macOS: Clang (via Xcode)
• Windows: MSVC (Visual Studio Build Tools)
  • Install the "Desktop development with C++" workload.
