Dotfiles

What are dotfiles

For those who aren’t familiar with Linux environments, dotfiles are those files and directories which sit in your /home/user/ directory. Those file always start with a dot, hence the name. They usually contain user-specific data, such as personal configurations, data, or cache files.

My dotfiles

You can download my dotfiles from GitHub. I use yadm as my dotfiles manager, because it is pretty straight forward to use if you’re familiar with git. I strive to keep my dotfiles tidy and properly documented, if something is missing don’t hesitate to contact me or open a new issue.

XDG Base Directory Specification

A clean /home/ is a happy /home/

I try to keep my home directory clean by supporting the XDG Base Directory Specification, which i totally suggest to do.
