Le Wagon's Setup VS dot.me

Le Wagon They teach Web dev with Ruby and Data science with Python

The one I'm considering is this. The reviews and searches on Reddit about it have been positive. https://www.lewagon.com/

I did a coding bootcamp in London and cost considerably less than in the US (I work in the US now as a software dev), check them out they have locations all over Europe https://www.lewagon.com/

My wife wants to change career. I work in the IT field, and she thought it looked like an interesting career, so I told her that bootcamps existed and we looked a few up. There are some you can take online, like Altcademy and others you can find directly in Switzerland, like Le Wagon .

I know a few people who attended and were very happy with Le Wagon in Tokyo. The program is specifically shorter and cheaper so all in all you'll end up spending about the same to live in a different country and the program is short enough that you won't even need to get a visa! I really wish I went this route many years ago rather than being self-taught.

Anyway, after some research, I discovered Le Wagon, an intensive nine weeks long coding bootcamp that was perfectly fitting my needs: a way to catch up quickly with the basics of The Code.

Setting up a Rails developer environment is not that easy. I advise you to follow part of this coding school setup https://github.com/lewagon/setup/blob/master/macos.md

You can see https://github.com/podiki/dot.me/tree/master/x11 for more, but that is the important part.

In case it helps, you can see my configs for both in my dot files: https://github.com/podiki/dot.me I recently did a lot with my Stump config as I was energized by returning to it, doing things I didn't realize I could do before. It does need cleaning up now.

I have a similar setup to what you are asking about, I think. I haven't migrated everything to org-mode, but many are. You can see my dotfiles here: https://github.com/podiki/dot.me

So you should be able to have just about everything in user profiles/manifests and probably it is a search path here not being exported. If it is helpful, I have my config stuff here https://github.com/podiki/dot.me (see the guix and zsh directories specifically)

I better get right on it! If you are curious, you can see my current Guix config here [0], though not very commented. But those files (combined with the rest of my dot files) would reproduce this system configuration.

I use org-mode to generate my file (see https://github.com/podiki/dot.me for all of them), with the main emacs org file weighing in at 72K or 1,865 lines (woah, it got long). While my .emacs file that will load this file is just 5.8K or 106 lines. I've been using, and customizing, emacs for a while...

Personally, I use git [0] along with GNU stow [1], combined with making the files directly from a literate Readme.org (e.g. [2]). I sync this repository between machines to update files, and when I make changes in the org-mode Readme file it automatically generates the new file. There are ways to pull in changes made to that file directly, but haven't needed to do that. My repo doesn't have the full details, but if you want to see it in action along with a few links and pointers, do take a look at [0]. I really like having it all together in one place, and with org-mode everything is very (human) readable.

I have it running with a very similar setup (same picom fork, XMonad, nvidia, xinitrc), which you can see here, in case it helps: https://github.com/podiki/dot.me

STOW is great, it is simple and works well especially combined with git. That's what I do [0], and recently combined it with org-mode for literate programming, so each program has just a README.org that then generates all the files via org tangle [1] [2]. For example, here is my file that generates my Xorg configuration [3] over several files, nicely readable on GitHub, in Emacs, or just as plain text.
