dotfiles

Setup on a new machine

1. Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/JCZuurmond/dotfiles.git ~/github/JCZuurmond/dotfiles
cd ~/github/JCZuurmond/dotfiles

2. Use GNU Stow to symlink config directories into $HOME:

stow -t $HOME <directory>

For example:

stow -t $HOME zsh
stow -t $HOME git
stow -t $HOME claude

3. For Claude Code, symlink manually since ~/.claude/ contains non-stowable runtime files:

ln -s ~/github/JCZuurmond/dotfiles/claude/CLAUDE.md ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md
ln -s ~/github/JCZuurmond/dotfiles/claude/settings.json ~/.claude/settings.json

(Re)generate i3 config

set $prim_screen eDP1
set $sec_screen DP1
set $dpi 
set $mode
>> i3-regenerate      #  in dotfiles/local/.local/bin

set $dpi --dpi 220
