-# dotfiles, plus scripts for box setup
+# dotfiles, plus installation and related scripts

-### prereqs
- zsh and git installed
+This repo contains a collection of scripts and files related to:
+
+- configuration (i.e. this serves as my dotfiles repo)
+- installation of programs
+- scripts/executables for my local systems
+- anything else related to getting my boxes (computers) set up as desired
+
+This repo grew into more than I originally intended, but it turned into a fun little
+excursion into the realm of shell scripting (and an intro to Lua for the neovim
+portions).
+
+## prereqs

-### todo items
- config for: terminal (ghostty? foot? havoc?); shell; mpd, mpc, ncmpcpp; mpv
- hyprland config on linux
- decide on docker? or alternatives like podman? any license concerns?
- switch installation approach, use csv file with programs to install, install types,
-  any extra flags/opts, comments
-    - regarding the system-types idea i'd started to build in already, maybe have a
-      column for filtering in the csv file, or just have multiple csv files corresponding
-      to a base/core install, a music-studio install, a employer/work machine, etc.
-    - alternate idea: columns for "include_in_systems" and/or "excluded_from_systems"
-        - if both, likely apply the include column first, then the exclude (priority)
- add command in tmux to perform cd to a given dir in all windows of the current session

+## Original pattern/approach and some core config logic
+
+The original idea and approach for this project, including the original versions of my
+program-installation script, the copy-configs-and-files script, the "tmux sessionizer"
+(tmux session init logic), my initial neovim and tmux configs, and (though not code)
+my general workflow/workspace strategy, were derived from several of ThePrimeagen's
+(aka Michael Paulson's) projects and videos, including a FrontEnd Masters course which
+he taught (each are listed below). I could not locate any required licenses or copyrights
+for the code contained within these sources, but I wanted to give attribution nonetheless.

david	a35cd568ce	Replace mise-activate with simple wrapper scripts and ENV vars The prompting for this change is to use mise within ksh/oksh without having to rely on zsh (such as `zsh -c "mise activate zsh"` or otherwise). I kind of like the simplicity of this, and then I can still easily change versions as needed in a given project by sourcing a file which exports different vars for target language versions, or I can just do manual export commands from the shell.	2025-11-16 01:04:07 -06:00

david	52610e056a	Ignore brave browser in theme-set for now I dug at this for a while and it never worked well. There might be some way to do this with what currently exists, but it isn't obvious if so and I don't think it is worth it. I think I may prefer to just set brave to dark mode and keep the frame minimal. Also, my plan is to switch to using qutebrowser as my primary browser anyway.	2025-11-14 20:00:31 -06:00
