My dotfiles

tl;dr GitHub repo with latest dotfiles: https://github.com/pranavcode/dotfiles.git

Clone the dotfiles locally

Ideally, clone it into the user’s home directory.

git clone https://github.com/pranavcode/dotfiles.git

Install prerequisites

autojump - https://github.com/wting/autojump

nvm - https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm

tmux - https://github.com/tmux/tmux

Some special mentions

For frequently used tools like git, docker, kubectl, etc I use aliases to help save some keystrokes (ref: https://github.com/pranavcode/dotfiles/blob/master/.bash\_aliases).

Consistent code styling with .editorconfig

Also, maintain a root .editorconfig to get the same code editing experience across code editors. I have recently shifted to VS Code from emacs—more on that separately.
