Rub3cK0r3’s Dotfiles
Years of crafting a fully optimized, Linux-first development environment

---

> the_story

This isn’t just a repo of configs. It’s years of iterative work:

• Experimenting with Linux and Wayland since first installs.
• Tweaking Sway keybindings until workflow felt fluid and natural.
• Building a Neovim setup from scratch, plugin by plugin, LSP by LSP.
• Polishing the UI with colorschemes, Waybar themes, and wallpapers.
• Automating repetitive tasks with shell scripts, Ranger tweaks, and utilities.

Every file here represents lessons learned, frustration solved, and efficiency gained.
