🚀 My Dotfiles

This repository contains my personal dotfiles for configuring my development environment. It includes configurations for tools like WezTerm, Neovim, PowerShell, Starship, and more. These dotfiles are managed using symbolic links, allowing for easy synchronization across multiple machines.

📂 Structure

• setup_symlinks.ps1 → Creates symlinks for all dotfiles
• update_dotfiles.ps1 → Commits and pushes updated dotfiles to GitHub
• .gitconfig → Git configuration
• Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1 → PowerShell customizations
• nvim/ → Neovim configuration
• wezterm/ → WezTerm configuration
• starship.toml → Starship prompt settings
• settings.json → Windows Terminal settings
• startup-script.bat → Startup script for Windows

🔧 Installation

1️⃣ Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/nxstynate/dotfiles.git $HOME\dotfiles
cd $HOME\dotfiles

2️⃣ Run the Setup Script

This will create symbolic links from your home directory to the stored dotfiles.

.\setup_symlinks.ps1

3️⃣ Done! 🎉

Your environment is now configured with the correct settings.

🔄 Updating Dotfiles

After modifying any configuration file, commit and push your changes:

.\update_dotfiles.ps1

To sync changes on another machine, simply run:

git pull origin main
.\setup_symlinks.ps1

💻 Setting Up a New Machine

For a fresh install, run:

git clone https://github.com/nxstynate/dotfiles.git $HOME\dotfiles
cd $HOME\dotfiles
.\setup_symlinks.ps1

For additional software installation, you can use Windows Package Manager (winget):

winget install Starship WezTerm Neovim.Git PowerShell

❗ Troubleshooting

💡 Symlink Issues

If symbolic links fail to create, make sure you run PowerShell as Administrator.

💡 GitHub Authentication Issues

If you're getting errors when pushing to GitHub:

git remote set-url origin https://nxstynate@github.com/nxstynate/dotfiles.git

Or use SSH authentication instead:

git remote set-url origin git@github.com:nxstynate/dotfiles.git

🚀 Future Improvements

• Automate new machine setup with an install.ps1 script
• Add additional configurations for tools like Tmux, Zsh, and VS Code
• Explore automated syncing with Windows Task Scheduler
