Dotfiles: Developer's Setup

My personal developer setup for macOS, covering shell configuration, git, Laravel Valet, and more.

Warning

These dotfiles are configured to match my personal preferences. Understand the code before running any scripts.

Getting Started

1. Download the repository as a zip archive
2. Move this to your preferred location. I typically use mv $HOME/Downloads/dotfiles-main $HOME/dotfiles
3. Make sure you're in your home folder, e.g. ~ or $HOME
4. Run ./dotfiles/install-system.sh
5. Restart your system to let all settings take effect
6. Run ./dotfiles/install-dev-env.sh

What's Inside

Each folder within this repository is accompanied by a detailed README file, providing insights into the specific configurations and settings it contains.

Feel free to explore and adapt them to suit your development needs.

install-system.sh

• macOS system settings
• Shell, bin, and git configuration
• Homebrew with node, php, composer, and common dev tools
• Zsh with Pure prompt
• Ghostty terminal
• Zed editor
• Fork git client

install-dev-env.sh

• Claude Code and Gemini CLI

_Library

Alternative configurations for tools not in the main setup (bash, VSCode, WezTerm). Each has a setup.sh to apply the settings, but you need to install the tool yourself.

_Archive

Configurations kept for historical reference only. These tools are no longer actively maintained.
