dotfiles

Welcome to my humble abode.

Setup

1. Clone this repository to your home directory:

   git clone <repo-url> ~/dotfiles

2. Set up your .bashrc to use the dotfiles:

   cp ~/dotfiles/.bashrc_template ~/.bashrc

   Or manually add this line to your existing ~/.bashrc:

   source ~/dotfiles/load_config.sh

3. Reload your shell configuration:

   source ~/.bashrc

How It Works

The load_config.sh script automatically:

• Detects your operating system (Linux, macOS, etc.)
• Loads all configs from .shell_config/agnostic/ (OS-independent)
• Loads OS-specific configs from .shell_config/{os}/ (e.g., .shell_config/linux/ or .shell_config/mac/)

Adding New Configs

• OS-agnostic configs: Add files to .shell_config/agnostic/
• OS-specific configs: Add files to .shell_config/linux/ or .shell_config/mac/

All files in these directories will be automatically sourced when your shell starts.
