dotfiles

My development environment setup: Neovim + tmux + Fish + Ghostty.

Based on craftzdog/dotfiles-public with custom extensions for Go, Python, Terraform and Docker development.

What's included

• Neovim (LazyVim) - solarized-osaka theme, oil.nvim file explorer, telescope, toggleterm, supermaven AI, zen-mode, DAP debugging
• tmux - C-t prefix, lazygit/claude code popups, solarized statusline
• Fish - tide prompt, eza aliases, zoxide, fzf integration
• Ghostty - solarized dark theme, transparency, FiraCode Nerd Font

Prerequisites

• macOS (tested on Apple Silicon)
• Homebrew
• Git
• FiraCode Nerd Font

Manual setup

1. Install dependencies

brew install neovim tmux fish ghostty eza zoxide fzf lazygit lazydocker

2. Set fish as default shell

echo /opt/homebrew/bin/fish | sudo tee -a /etc/shells
chsh -s /opt/homebrew/bin/fish

3. Install fish plugin manager (fisher) and tide prompt

fish -c "curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jorgebucaran/fisher/main/functions/fisher.fish | source && fisher install jorgebucaran/fisher"
fish -c "fisher install IlanCosman/tide@v6"

4. Install tmux plugin manager (TPM)

git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm ~/.config/tmux/plugins/tpm

5. Clone and symlink configs

git clone https://github.com/Capellinx/dotfiles.git ~/dotfiles

# Back up existing configs
mkdir -p ~/.config-backup
cp -r ~/.config/nvim ~/.config-backup/ 2>/dev/null
cp -r ~/.config/tmux ~/.config-backup/ 2>/dev/null
cp -r ~/.config/fish ~/.config-backup/ 2>/dev/null
cp -r ~/.config/ghostty ~/.config-backup/ 2>/dev/null

# Symlink configs
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/.config/nvim ~/.config/nvim
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/.config/tmux ~/.config/tmux
ln -sf ~/dotfiles/.config/ghostty ~/.config/ghostty
cp ~/dotfiles/.config/fish/config.fish ~/.config/fish/config.fish

6. Open Ghostty and finish setup

# Inside tmux (starts automatically), install tmux plugins:
# Press Ctrl+t, then I (capital i)

# Configure tide prompt:
tide configure

# Open neovim - plugins install automatically:
nvim

Setup using Claude Code

If you have Claude Code installed, you can automate the entire setup:

claude -p "Clone https://github.com/Capellinx/dotfiles and set up my dev environment. Install all dependencies with brew (neovim, tmux, fish, ghostty, eza, zoxide, fzf, lazygit, lazydocker). Set fish as default shell. Install fisher and tide. Install TPM. Symlink all configs from the cloned repo to ~/.config/. Open nvim to trigger plugin installation."

Or interactively:

claude

Then ask:

Set up my dev environment using my dotfiles repo at https://github.com/Capellinx/dotfiles - install all dependencies, configure fish with tide, tmux with TPM, and symlink all configs.
