This is my dotfiles configuration files.

git clone https://github.com/klaasnicolaas/dotfiles.git
cd dotfiles && bash install.sh

The following platforms are installed and set up by default with the bash script:

• GitHub CLI
• Oh My Zsh (with powerlevel10k)
• Pyenv
• Uv
• Nvm
• Docker (with Docker Compose)
• Composer

After installation, there are still a few things I always do manually.

This is the case for:

• Python (via pyenv)
• Node.JS/NPM (via nvm)
• Pipx (via script)
• Poetry (via script)
• Ruby (via script)
• PHP

The following components can be installed separately using the scripts in the components/ directory:

Install pipx for managing Python CLI tools in isolated environments.

Requirements: pyenv with a Python version installed

bash components/pipx.sh

Install Poetry via pipx for Python dependency management.

Requirements: pipx must be installed first

bash components/poetry.sh

Install rbenv with ruby-build for managing Ruby versions.

bash components/ruby.sh

The use of pyenv is recommended to manage multiple python versions, with the grep command we can narrow down the list with newer versions.

pyenv install --list | grep -E "^\s*3\.(11|12|13)(\..*|-dev.*)"
pyenv install 3.12.4
pyenv global 3.12.4

This will set your global git username and email. The install script will also prompt you for this information.

git config --global user.name "Klaas Schoute"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

Version 20 is currently the LTS version.

nvm install 20
nvm use 20
nvm alias default 20

Instal PHP 8.4 and all the extensions:

# 👇 install software-properties-common
