Workflow remider

Task	Command
Apply source → home	chezmoi apply
See what has drifted	chezmoi diff
Pull a live edit back into source	chezmoi re-add ~/.config/zed/settings.json

TODO:

1. Some software like (Zed, KDE) auto-save settings. chezmoi won't know! Run chezmoi re-add <file> to sync

Bootstrap on a new machine

# install chezmoin somehow
chezmoi init --apply https://github.com/sinder38/dotfiles

chezmoi will create ~/.config/chezmoi/chezmoi.toml for machine-specific config (never committed).

Dev server remider

The Hetzner dev server is separate

The playbook currently does not apply these dotfiles. To integrate chezmoi into the server bootstrap, add a role that:

1. Installs chezmoi (sh -c "$(curl -fsLS get.chezmoi.io)")
2. Runs chezmoi init --apply git@github.com:sinder38/dotfiles.git
3. Uses a .chezmoiignore to skip laptop-only configs (ghostty, kitty, wezterm, KDE, etc.)

See the chezmoi docs on .chezmoiignore for templating by machine type

Animated wallpaper

Use the wallpaper script to set a video wallpaper:

wallpaper ~/path/to/file.mp4

Copies to ~/.local/share/wallpapers/wallpaper.mp4 and sets it via mpvpaper (hardware-accelerated, plays MP4 directly).

Required secrets (password-store)

Run pass insert for each before applying chezmoi:

pass path	what it is
email/gmail/address	Gmail address
email/gmail/app-password	Gmail App Password
email/gmail/smtp-url	smtps://@smtp.gmail.com
realname	My IRL name

Dvorak remaps

Instead of learning qwerty vim-like keybinds I rebind them to use my own which are more ergonomic for my dvorak layout:
Here is an example from NeoVim

-- Dvorak movement
vim.keymap.set("", "t", "j", remap_opts)
vim.keymap.set("", "n", "k", remap_opts)
vim.keymap.set("", "s", "l", remap_opts)

-- insert swap
vim.keymap.set("n", "a", "i", remap_opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "i", "a", remap_opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "I", "A", remap_opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "A", "I", remap_opts)
