Why this notebook exists

Dotfiles is a place for small, self-contained notes about working in Linux. Explaining a handful of configuration lines matters more here than collecting the longest possible plugin list.

Familiar tools

The examples use Bash, Git, and Vim to make the underlying ideas easy to see. A different shell or editor is welcome too: file structure, backups, and small changes still matter.

Understand before installing

These examples are meant to be read. Save your existing file, work through each line, and test a change in another terminal window. Your configuration should follow your habits.

How the site works

Static pages in Russian and English, ordinary links, small examples, and an RSS feed. No accounts, advertisements, analytics, or external scripts. Download the example files if you prefer to read offline.
