Applications

I basically just installed every package from Modern Unix. You can find a full list of all the packages I “use” here.

CLI tools that I use often include:

  • fzf: Fuzzy search tool,Especially for reverse search in my terminal with fish shell
  • zoxide: Smarter cd tool, integrated well with fzf, nvim and tmux
  • exa: ls replacement, used with exa aliases
  • ripgrep: A faster grep
  • lazygit: A TUI based git management client
  • navi: Interactive cheat sheet

I wanted to have wallpaper that changes with the day, I slightly changed the sunpaper script. Which is a great script because it changes depending on the time of day i.e. when sunsets/rises.

I have started using nvim as my default editor (IDE?). It uses astronvim as the base config and adds a few plugins on top.

  • trouble: For showing all lsp diagnostic issues in a file
  • telescope zoxide: For showing all lsp diagnostic issues in a file

Some of the nvim setup was heavily inspired by this repo. Including the status bar.
