# Inkletblot's Dotfiles

My Dotfiles, managed using (what I call) the [atlassian method](https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles).

Primarily the configs I care about in here are for the following programs.
- [neovim](#Neovim)
- xmonad
- Xmobar
- lf
- tmux
- zsh
- dwmblocks
- dwm
- system stuff such as xinitrc, shell, xprofile, and more.

Supporting programs include:
- alacritty
- dmenu
- picom
- dunst
- fish (I no longer use this)
- mutt (this either)
- newsboat (or this)

I have been building up this environment for some time, and it is likely to
change much in the future.

### Related works

I have a few repositories that pair with this one, primarily are both my scripts
repo and my dmenu fork. I use dmenu as my run launcher and I have myriad bash
scripts to make my linux experience my own. I also dabble with DWM and it's
related programs such as st, dwmblocks, and others.

- [dmenu](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/dmenu-inkletblot)

Tangentially to all this I have a WIP repo I call ink-os which will set up a
fresh install of Arch with all of my default programs, my dotfiles, and other
misc configs. It doesn't technically 'work' but it's still easier that a manual
setup for me.

### Credit

Although I will happily take credit for what I have built here I would like to
credit those who inspired me, or who I pilfered directly from:

- [Luke Smith](https://lukesmith.xyz) for many scripts, mutt, introducing me to vim, and much of my shell config.
- [DistroTube (Derek Taylor)](https://distro.tube/index.html) for introducing me to tiling window managers and reigniting my love for linux, also much of my xmonad, xmobar, fish, and alacritty configs were inspired by his.
- [ThePrimeagen](https://github.com/ThePrimeagen) for improving my developer workflow, introducing me to tmux (and being a source for my tmux scripts), and being generally a great guy.
- [chris@machine (Christian Chiarulli)](https://github.com/ChristianChiarulli), I credit 90% of my neovim config to this man and it's great.
- And others such as [TJ DeVries](https://github.com/tjdevries/), [Eric Murphy](https://www.youtube.com/c/EricMurphyxyz), [EF Linux Made Simple](https://www.youtube.com/c/EFLinuxMadeSimple/featured), and more.

## [Neovim (nightly)](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.config/nvim)

Probably the most complicated part of this is my nvim config, I should probably
move it to its own repo at some point.

It depends on a few different language servers and miscellaneous programs.
Including but not limited to:

- pyright
- npm/nodejs
- omnisharp-roslyn (and by proxy, dotnet)
- prettier
- ts-server
- eslint
- pandoc
- miktex
- git
- and more...

See more about it [here](https://inkletblot.com/posts/my-neovim-setup) (currently a wip).

## [xmonad](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.xmonad)

I was introduced to this by DistroTube and it was the first tiling window
manager I tried. My config started out as a direct copy of his but has morphed
somewhat since then. I really like xmonad and have made myself at home within
in it. Although currently I am giving dwm a solid try.

## [xmobar](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.config/xmobar)

xmobar obviously goes hand in hand with xmonad. It took me quite some time to
get the config for this to a place where I was happy with it but I now am. Again,
initially this was based entirely on Dt's videos.

## [lf](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.config/lfhttps://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.config/lf)

I used to use Thunar as my file manager and still do for a couple of use cases,
usually when inspecting large quantities of media where thumbnails are useful.
However, after coming across Luke Smith's and Eric Murphy's videos on lf I tried
it and fell in love. I open a gui file manager a couple of times a month at this
point.

## [tmux]()

WIP.

## [zsh](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.config/zsh), [shell](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.config/shell), and [x11](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/config/-/tree/main/.config/x11)

WIP.

## system

I have misc other configs here too such as Thunar, alacritty, picom, rofi, dunst,
fish, and more. I sometimes switch up what I'm using on my machine so I like to
keep old things around for the future.

## extras

There are some things that I would include in my config that don't really suit
being here. Specifically the following:

- My [dwm](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/dwm-inkletblot) config.
- My [dwmblocks](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/dwmblocks-inkletblot) config.
- My [dmenu](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/dmenu-inkletblot) config.
- My [st](https://gitlab.inkletblot.com/inkletblot/st-inkletblot) config.
