Dotfiles

This dotfiles repository is managed using GNU Stow for symlinking and Nix Flakes with nix-darwin and home-manager for package management.

Managing Symlinks with Stow

Each top-level directory (e.g., zsh/, nvim/, tmux/) is a stow package. Stow creates symlinks from these directories into your home directory.

Stow a Package

To symlink a package to your home directory:

cd ~/dotfiles
stow <package>

For example, to stow the zsh configuration:

stow zsh

Unstow a Package

To remove symlinks for a specific package:

cd ~/dotfiles
stow -D <package>

For example, to unstow the claude configuration:

stow -D claude

• -v, --verbose: Increase verbosity
• -D, --delete: Unstow (remove symlinks)
• -R, --restow: Restow (useful after modifying packages)

stow -nv zsh
