Krane's Dotfiles

Note: This README might be outdated, as I don't keep it up to date all the time.

Overview

This repository contains my personal dotfiles and system configuration files. It's designed to work with both Fedora (DNF) and Arch-based (Pacman) systems, with a focus on developer productivity and system customization.

• ZSH with Oh-My-ZSH and Powerlevel10k theme
• Custom aliases for improved workflow
• Integration with modern CLI tools

Terminal

• Alacritty as the primary terminal emulator

Development Environment

• Neovim (LazyVim) with language support for:
  • Docker, Java, JSON, Markdown, Python, Rust
  • Tailwind, LaTeX, TypeScript, YAML
• Git configuration with delta for improved diffs
• Docker and container tools

System Management

• Rebos - System configuration management tool
• Stow for dotfile management
• System initialization scripts

CLI Tools

• Modern replacements for standard tools:

Rebos System Management

Rebos is a tool that aims to provide system repeatability (similar to NixOS) for any Linux distribution. It uses a generation system to track and manage:

• System packages
• Flatpak applications
• Cargo crates
• Pip packages
• NPM packages

Key Features

• Calculates diffs between generations to add/remove packages
• Works on any Linux distro through configurable managers
• Enables syncing system configurations across multiple machines
• Provides an elegant way to reinstall your entire system setup with a few commands

Rebos configuration files are located in .config/rebos/. For more information, visit the Rebos project page.
