dotfiles

Personal Arch Linux configuration managed with chezmoi and Ansible. One command takes a fresh Arch install to a fully configured KDE Plasma desktop with development tools, theming, and all dotfiles in place.

Features

• One-command bootstrap From base Arch install to complete desktop in a single script
• Declarative package management All packages defined in ansible/vars/packages.yml
• Dotfile sync Shell configs, KDE settings, VS Code preferences, GTK themes managed via chezmoi
• Role-based Ansible playbook Modular roles: base, KDE, NVIDIA, dev tools, services
• NVIDIA support Optional NVIDIA driver installation (skippable with SKIP_NVIDIA=1)
• Wallpaper setup Automatic wallpaper deployment to ~/Pictures/Wallpapers/

Quick Start

After a base Arch install (user created, internet working):

bash <(curl -fsLS raw.githubusercontent.com/rainyroot/dotfiles/main/bootstrap.sh)

On machines without NVIDIA GPUs:

SKIP_NVIDIA=1 bash <(curl -fsLS raw.githubusercontent.com/rainyroot/dotfiles/main/bootstrap.sh)

See INSTALL.md for prerequisites and manual setup, and USAGE.md for day-to-day workflows.
