Dotfiles Management
I was unhappy with existing solutions, especially I wanted the ability to handle differences between machines. So I built my own! You're welcome to see if you like it :)

Managing your Dotfiles with Dotter (Tutorial)
I'm glad you asked! There are plenty of dotfiles managers out there, like chezmoi, Dotbot, or yadm (you can see a list here and a comparison table (from chezmoi, thus biased) here. But for this tutorial (and my dotfiles), I chose dotter.

Dotfiles Matter
I've been working around this using tools built on top of git like [yadm](https://github.com/TheLocehiliosan/yadm) and relying on `ls-files` to list all my tracked dotfiles and their paths.
Still having everything in one place would make things much simpler. Great idea!

System settings that aren’t in System Settings
I wonder if the program i use to manage my dotfiles could help manage your scripts and extend your setup to all your desktops? Its called yadm (https://yadm.io/) it makes it so easy to have a laptop and a desktop or two.

The right way to keep config files synced across devices?
I really like that one but still prefer yadm because you can just edit your files as usual and then yadm add them wherever you are.

Just got a new M2 Pro after my 2016 became outdated. What are your first steps to setting up a new computer?
If you haven’t already, this is the time to install a tool like yadm and get your computer configuration into version control. Your command-line tools can be managed by yadm directly, your system settings can mostly be managed with a yadm bootstrap script that runs things like defaults write, and the software you install can be managed with a Brewfile that the yadm bootstrap script uses to install software with Homebrew. Don’t manually download Xcode, use xcodes to do it.

System 76 Linux script to set up a new PC including the personal profile and prefered software installs
I personally use YADM. It's basically a git repo on my home folder, that only tracks what I explicitly set. And you can setup bootstraps to do what you said, install a bunch of stuff or make custom changes. In it's essence, it's a set of bash/sh files that are executed sequentially when you launch the yadm bootstrap command.
