In the Linux world, dotfiles are a collection of directories, configuration files and custom scripts that are used to customize the user experience and tweak the system’s look and behavior.
This repository contains the dotfiles that I use on my personal and work Linux computers. I tried to make them as portable as possible but in some cases it’s just not possible to work around machine specific requirements, in that case, manual adaption is required.
