dotfiles

Minimal, framework-free terminal setup — clean ZSH + modern CLI tools, all installable without sudo (user-level to ~/.local/bin).

Built from a clean-ZSH workflow: no oh-my-zsh, no plugin manager, just files you control.

What's inside

Tool	Replaces	Purpose
zoxide	cd	smart jump — z projectname
fzf	—	fuzzy finder — Ctrl-T files · Ctrl-R history · Alt-C dirs
starship	prompt	fast cross-shell prompt
eza	ls	icons, git status
bat	cat	syntax highlighting
fd	find	fast, sane syntax
ripgrep	grep	fast search

Four ZSH plugins (auto-cloned, no manager): syntax-highlighting, autosuggestions, history-substring-search.

Install

git clone <this-repo> ~/dotfiles
cd ~/dotfiles
./install.sh

The script installs all tools to ~/.local/bin and symlinks the configs.

• ZSH: sudo apt install zsh && chsh -s $(which zsh), then relogin.
• Bash: append bash/bashrc-snippet.sh to your ~/.bashrc.

Layout

zsh/          zshrc, zshenv, aliases, plugins, prompt
bash/         bashrc-snippet.sh  (same tools for bash)
starship/     starship.toml
install.sh    no-sudo bootstrap

Config choices

• History: 100k entries, shared, dedup, ignore-space
• Completion: case-insensitive, cached under $XDG_CACHE_HOME
• XDG-clean: config in ~/.config/zsh, state in ~/.local/state
