To install the extensions run install-extensions.sh. You can also copy and paste the keybindings from .config/Code/User/keybindings.json, but it may cause problems on different operating systems and keyboard layouts.

3. Nano Editor Extensions See this section.

4. Setup better-git-diff for Linux

5. gterminal.preferences will have to be loaded (see gterminal.preferences.sh).

6. For the zsh custom plugins/theme, you will have to install them separately.

7. See this link for installing the gh command line autocompletion.

8. Copy files from dotfiles

   • scripts/ (setup in PATH too)
   • .vimrc (vim setup file)
   • .zlogout, .zshrc (zsh startup files)
   • p10k.zsh (contains some customization for powerlevel10k, rest autogenerated)
   • .gitconfig (also setup other information such as email and username)

14. Install the Orchis Solid Dark, Bibata Modern Classic, and Vimix Dark themes for GTK

15. Install Polybar and Polybar Themes (simple mode) and apply the .config/polybar/main.patch to the ~/.config/polybar. You may need to change the launch.sh to match your WiFi network, but it works on my system just fine.

16. Install rofi: sudo apt install rofi. The polybar theme already configures rofi out of the box.

17. If on MacOS, also use XCode SDK CLang Library paths to place bits/stdc++.h
