dotfiles

My dotfiles for a development environment with MacOS, iTerm, Alacritty, tmux, Zsh, IntelliJ, Vim/Neovim, Git.

Vim

colour scheme

• Option 1: gruvbox

Put the following in vim config file

Plug 'morhetz/gruvbox'

colorscheme gruvbox

• Option 2: solarized

Download solarized.vim from Solarized

$ mv solarized.vim ~/.vim/colors/

then include the following line in .vimrc

colorscheme solarized

Note: Neovim configuration is in a separate repository which can be found here.

Zsh config

I use Oh My Zsh for managing zsh configuration.

Installation

With the following command can install ohmyzsh, which works out of the box.

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

Theme

I use agnoster theme with Powerline fonts for zsh. The agnoster theme comes with ohmyzsh, just need to enable it in .zshrc file. Use following command to install Powerline fonts:

# clone
git clone https://github.com/powerline/fonts.git --depth=1
# install
cd fonts
./install.sh
# clean-up a bit
cd ..
rm -rf fonts

In iTerm2, navigate to Preferences -> Profiles -> [myProfile] -> Text, tick "Use built-in Powerline glyphs" may just work fine without specifying a Powerline font. With default terminal of MacOS, need to set the font to one of installed Powerline fonts.

In addition, I also use the hack nerd font and jetbrains mono nerd font for terminal and Neovim, which can be installed with the following command:

brew tap homebrew/cask-fonts
brew install font-hack-nerd-font
brew install --cask font-jetbrains-mono-nerd-font

Plugins

The main plugins I use include git forgit z. The forgit needs to be installed as a custom plugin by the following command:

cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins
git clone https://github.com/wfxr/forgit

In addition, forgit requires fzf installed to work properly. Install fzf by:

brew install fzf
