Dev Environment Config

When somebody begins a sentence with “IT WOULD BE NICE IF..” the right thing to do is to wait politely for the speaker to finish. No project ever gets around to the it-would-be-nice features: or if they do, they regret it. Wait for sentences that begin “WE HAVE TO..” and pay close attention, and see if you agree. - Tom Van Vleck

Jazz up your debian or ubuntu system instantly. Go from having nothing on your system to a powerful and self-sufficient IDE in minutes. You will want for nothing after this!

Getting started

Follow the following steps for instantly getting started

NOTE: This script is not maintained. Install at your own risk. For help, you can take a look inside the Makefile.

# Prerequisites:
$ sudo apt install make # The only prerequisite!

# Clone the repo in you $HOME
$ git clone https://github.com/L04DB4L4NC3R/DEC.git

# cd into the directory
$ cd DEC

# Run bootstrap and setup, and you are good to go
$ make bootstrap
$ make setup

# To install tools (optional)
# Make sure you have graphics drivers installed
$ make tools

Guide

Now that you have the system setup, lets see what all you have.

• No need to open a new terminal session. After setting up your current terminal will change to a beautiful bira theme in zsh.
• Notice that you will be running terminator instead of your boring old tiling manager. Type ctrl+shift+e to split vertically.
• Run vim to see your new editor in all its glory. Refer the ~/.vimrc and the plugin README's for shortcuts.
• Run ranger to get a file system GUI right on your terminal.
• optional: If you have your tools installed, run any of gotop, htop, or nvtop to monitor your system in real time.

If you want to add a vim plugin, make sure it uses pathogen. Just append the link to its repo here.

Make sure you run make bootstrap && make setup for the changes to apply
