Motivation

(DRY) - Don't repeat yourself a principle in software development. We should use this principle to reduce repetitive and time-consuming work. Personally I just try to apply these principles at work. The most basic example is making these dotfiles, well the point is that I don't have to provide the equipment or tools I use in my daily life. So, from this motivation you can see the main goal (Goal).

The job of a software developer, software engineer, or software worker requires tools to be used on top of a running system (usually we call an operating system or 'OS'). I am familiar with using operating systems such as OSX which is based on Darwin/unix made by Apple and ArchLinux which is based on Linux. Well my goal is to become a human user agnostic (not religious bound to a system but still loyal to creator users, except for the operating system made by Mikocok). These tools are collected in one place to store everything about tools, configurations, settings, credentials, and others that support the needs of working or just operating a computer. Where is my container? on this github, then we need git or other tools, which obviously we keep in sync between every machine we use so we don't do things over and over again.

The bottom line: with dotfiles we reduce setup time or prepare needs before we work on new or existing machines

Developer Tools

The tools I use are as follows:

General

common, don't use

| * | Name | OSX | Linux | |---------------------|--------------|-------|--- -----| | Dotfiles Manager | yadm | | | | Shell | zsh | | | | Multiplexer | tmux | | | | Editor | vim/neovim | | | | Monitors | polybar | | | | Window Manager (WM) | I3 | | | | Terminals | Alacritty | | | | | iTerm2 | | | | Mail | Mail | | | | Browsers | Chrome | | | | | Firefox | | | | | Safaris | | |

Package Manager

Homebrew (OSX)

Homebrew is a package manager used in the operating system (OXS). When I use a Macbook, Homebrew will be my loyal friend. Here's the command I often use to dump every package I have installed on the device I use

# backup
brew bundle dump --file=~/.Brewfile

# restore / install
brew bundle --file=~/.Brewfile

Credentials

why should it be plain-text when it can be automatic

• Login
  • Password : my password is not stored in memory, but I store it in an application called pass
  • 2FA/OTP : I use authy (most often) and bitwarden. and I strongly avoid using 2FA/OTP on short message services (SMS) for reasons that are not really clear.

Password manager

Here's a list of tools used for "Secret" or credential needs in a platform or web browser

| * | Name | OSX | Linux | |--------------------------|------------------------------ ----------------------------|-----|-------| | Privacy | gnugpg | | | | Password Manager | pass (require gpg and version control such git or host) | | | | 2fa / OTP / TOTP | Authy | | | | | Bitwarden | | |
