<h3>What are Dotfiles?</h3><p>
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.</p>
<h2>What are in my Dotfiles?</h2>
<p>In my Dotfiles, I have created an install script written in Bash that automatically installs all of my configurations and the software I use, giving the end user my setup. I wouldn't suggest the average person use my setup as-is, but rather to take my configs and modify them, thereby making it their own!</p>
<p>I will not go in-depth about the software I use since I have already done that on the <a href="../../about/software">software</a> 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 <b>tested it on so far</b>. If you still encounter warning messages, please refer to the <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mkinitcpio#Possibly_missing_firmware_for_module_XXXX">Arch Wiki</a> page to see what firmware you need to install.</p>
