Useful Shell Prompt (2020)
https://github.com/thanatos/dotfiles/blob/master/shell/zsh/p...
I've tried to highlight roughly the relevant bits.
The basics of it is that we lazy-load an associative array between exit statuses that are signals and their prettified names. (Which we more or less build by querying Python, to get at what's, essentially, defined in signal.h.)
Once we have that assoc. array, when we get a non-zero exit, we see if it's in the array. If it is, look up the pretty name, print message. If not, just print message with raw exit status. Red & bold so it shows up. (Should probably also use bright red, too. But my work laptop is macOS, & so it's iTerm2, and iTerm2 interprets "bold" to mean "bright & bold".)
I also use zsh, which is able to be considerably more expressive in what it can accomplish in a PS1 than bash can. Note that the syntax,
${+VAR}

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Just got a new M2 Pro after my 2016 became outdated.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.
