dotfiles VS miniforge

My current setup has some issues, but you might find my dracula theme settings interesting. I added support for truecolor, darkened the background, and adjusted currentline color.

I keep them on github and my home directory contains a bare rpoe. I followed a guide to create my repo.

My dotfiles, which aren't super impressive.

This is what I do. I originally went the symlink route, but this is much easier to manage.

I maintain a dotfiles project in github (it also has /etc files in it). Helps when setting up another separate device.

I have a dotfiles project in github. In macos, I would just check it out into my home directory and have all my familiar settings like I have in Linux.

That's exactly what I created: https://github.com/mikeslattery/dotfiles

Create a dotfiles project, like mine

git clone --bare https://github.com/mikeslattery/dotfiles .dotfiles alias config="git -C $HOME --git-dir=$HOME/.dotfiles --work-tree=$HOME" config config --local status.showUntrackedFiles no config reset --hard

Nope they don't use venv for any of the oobabooga# variants nor is it recommended for the git version. I'm using https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge#mambaforge-pypy3 (better version of the recommended conda) for the git variant. The oobabooga* variant uses micro/miniconda (I suck with names) which you can easily drop into with cmd_?something? and does it all internally. Like whoever built that whole environment setup for the _windows/linux/mac did a great job.

wget https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/latest/download/Miniforge3-Linux-aarch64.sh .

Mambaforge!

Just to further clarify: you don't need mamba to avoid the Anaconda distribution. The place you get mambaforge also supplies (and originally supplied) miniforge, which is miniconda with conda-forge set as the default channel. All the *forge installers do in this regard is automatically set conda-forge as the default (and only) channel, which is something one can do manually with miniconda.

I'd recommend using miniforge if you're comfortable with CLIs, otherwise https://www.anaconda.com/.

Tip 1: To use less of your Codespaces resources start with a smaller image like Miniconda or Miniforge and install only what you need.

miniforge, no need to deal with conda environments anymore. https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge
