dot-🐟-y (my dotfiles)

Since new Macbooks are so fragile, I've created repo to setup my Mac faster. It installs Fish as a shell and Solarized Light theme across apps. The killer feature is the Hyper key config with lots of shortcuts.

How it works

Study install.sh. The script links proper configurations from ~/.dotfishy to apps config locations.

A fresh MacOS Setup

Before reinstall

Before wiping your Mac, check those:

• Commit and push any changes/branches to your git repositories (including ~/.dotfishy).
• Save all important documents from non-synced directories.
• Save all of your work from apps which aren't synced through iCloud.

Setting up

1. Update macOS to the latest version with the App Store
2. Install macOS Command Line Tools by running xcode-select --install (required for git)
3. Sign in to Mac App Store (required for mas to install apps from App Store)
4. Copy your public and private SSH keys to ~/.ssh and make sure they're set to 600
5. Clone this repo to ~/.dotfishy
6. Run cd ~/.dotfishy && ./install.sh to start installation
