What are Dotfiles?

The reason I have dotfiles is for a few reasons. The first is that I use my PC and a few laptops interchangeably, and having my configurations easily downloadable is a big time saver. The second reason why I have my dotfiles up is because maybe somebody is looking for a certain baseline for their configurations, and if they find it well, I am more than happy to help that person. The third reason is just in case something happens to one of my laptops or my PC. I suggest that if you have configuration files, you should back them up on your preferred git host.

I will not go in-depth about the software I use since I have already done that on the software page. Instead of including all my software, I have only included the essential software in the install script, as different computers serve different purposes. Additionally, I have programmed a part of the script to install any missing firmware, eliminating those annoying warning messages during package installation. While I can't guarantee this will work on all computers, it has successfully fixed all missing firmware on every computer I've tested it on so far. If you still encounter warning messages, please refer to the Arch Wiki page to see what firmware you need to install.

As far as I am aware, the only improvement I can make is getting the ranger configuration working on the first install without the user making it work themself.

Stable install (mostly)

Today, I tested my install script on my test computer, and it went smoothly. I only found one problem, which was easily fixed: I forgot to use the -r option when copying files to the .config directory. The only remaining issue is with the ranger config, but apart from that, the install script is stable for anybody to use.
