Marcel Dias' dotfiles

My macOS preferences and configurations for ZSH, Git, Ghostty, and more.

Install

git clone https://github.com/marcel-dias/dotfiles ~/.dotfiles
cd ~/.dotfiles
./setup

What setup does

  1. Creates symlinks for config files to their expected locations
  2. Runs brew bundle to install packages from the Brewfile

Re-run ./setup any time to update — it's idempotent (skips existing links).

macOS defaults

Optionally configure macOS system preferences:

./macOS/set-defaults.sh

This requires sudo and restarts several apps. Run it manually when setting up a new machine.

Structure

  • shell/ — ZSH configuration (zshrc, aliases, paths, functions, config, completion)
  • git/ — Git config and global gitignore → ~/.config/git/
  • ghostty/ — Ghostty terminal config → ~/.config/ghostty/
  • starship/ — Starship prompt config → ~/.config/starship/
  • vscode/ — VS Code settings → ~/.vscode/
  • node/ — Node version config → ~/.nvmrc
  • java/ — Java version config → ~/.java-version
  • macOS/ — macOS system defaults (manual)
  • Brewfile — Homebrew packages, casks, Mac App Store apps, VS Code extensions

Secrets

Private environment variables are stored in 1Password and injected into ~/.localrc via op inject. Never committed to the repo.
