Development Toolkit 📡

A simple, comprehensive and user-friendly development toolkit to boost up your productivity 🚀.

• terminal emulator: kitty
• shell: zsh
• editor: neovim
• terminal filemanager: yazi

Try

docker run -it --rm --name dev ch4xer/dev:latest /bin/zsh

Install

git clone https://github.com/ch3n9w/dev
cd dev
# install dependency software and install configuration
./scripts/install-software.sh

Alternatively (if you dont want to install all of them), you can copy the configuration directory you like to XDG_CONFIG_HOME (commonly ~/.config), for example:

nvim -> ~/.config/nvim
kitty -> ~/.config/kitty
yazi -> ~/.config/yazi
zsh/zsh -> ~/.config/zsh
zsh/zshrc -> ~/.zshrc
zsh/zimrc -> ~/.zimrc

Noteable Info

• Kitty
  • use Ctrl and Shift as modifier key for all shortcuts
  • use JetbrainMono Nerd Font and LXGW WenKai as font
• Zsh
  • you can add software settings in zsh/zsh/software
  • disable vim mode.
• Neovim
  • Based on LazyVim, with some simplifications to make it more tiny and user-friendly
  • Good support for Neovide (fixed gui color & keymap)
