Wrote up how I manage dotfiles across macOS and Linux with Nix. One repo, one flake.lock — same shell, editor, and tools on every machine. Home Manager and nix-darwin do the heavy lifting.

The first **Terminal Tuesday** is live! 🎉📢

We had Dolev Hadar showcase a super clean workflow built around **tmux + neovim + gh-dash**

▶️ Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_-qOpwDBb0

💯 Lots of practical tips for improving Git/GitHub flow in the terminal!

👀 Wanna present your setup next? We're looking for guests!

I love Bash. I used to write tons of Bash. There is a lot of Bash in my life, even to this day.

But here's my life now:

* Bash holds some stuff together (small stuff: usually setting variables, aliases, and/or piping together a few CLI tools. See https://github.com/wolf/dotfiles/tree/main/shells/dot-config/shells/topics for examples)

* Zsh is good at doing stuff when I type, so that's my login shell

* If I have to do something interesting, why not just a Python script? In modern times, with a `uv` shebang line and self-specified dependencies ... the only externally visible additional requirement is `uv` itself (you don't even need Python). Just like a shell-based answer: you end up with a single stand-alone file

I'm not going to argue about "but you have to install `uv`". You do you.

I'm launching "**Terminal Tuesdays**" 🖥️

🐁 A biweekly meetup where someone from the community showcases their terminal setup.

💯 Configs, TUIs, scripts, weird hacks

📡 Join our Discord: https://discord.com/invite/6EUERBrAMs

▶️ Going to be recorded & published: https://youtube.com/@terminalcollectiveorg

dotGit — minimal dotfiles manager built on a bare git repo + shell aliases.

What I use most: `.gg PATH` greps all tracked dotfiles and takes you to the line. `.ge zshrc` fuzzy-finds a filename with preview and opens in $EDITOR.

No symlinks or extra tooling. Files stay exactly where they are.

New blog post! My dotfiles repo evolved from basic shell configs to managing my AI coding agents — Claude Code and OpenCode get the same instructions, exclusions, and skills through symlinks.

If you're using AI coding tools regularly, version controlling their configs is a game changer.
