## ☣️ Disclaimer
This is a repository that I keep public in order to ease out the installation
of my different computers.
The repository is not intended to be used as-is by many people, although
special attention and care has been put in order to make it sensibly easy to be
used by anyone wanting to try out this installation.
Although the goal for any non-contributor is to get inspiration, not to use it
as you daily driver. Nothing can stop you from doing it so feel free to do so
and open issues, but I can't guarantee to be available to fix issues.
## 🔥 Features

## ️ Informations
### ✒️ Neovim
[Neovim](https://neovim.io/)'s plugins gets installed only when run. Try
running `nvim` at least once per user `root` and the chosen unprivileged user.
### ✈️ Tmux
[Tmux](https://github.com/tmux/tmux)'s plugins get installed once it is run
without argument. A Fish function gets triggered whenever `tmux` is run. If it
has no argument, then plugins gets checked and installed. If it has arguments,
plugins do not get installed nor checked. Please run at least once `tmux` in
order to install the necessary plugins before using it.
### 🔐 SSH
It's a good idea to backup your existing `~/.ssh/config` file before erasing
the informations contained in a previous computer.
Once the new computer is installed, don't forget to create a new SSH key using
`ssh-keygen -t ed25519` and to propagate this key to the relevant services
(servers, GitHub, GitLab, ...). Although the `post-install.sh` script should
already have prompted you to create a new key if it did not detect one.
### 🦆 Yazi
[Yazi](https://yazi-rs.github.io/) is a terminal file explorer that is written
in Rust and has default keybinding using Vim motions, can render images in the
terminal and is able to run a bunch of programs by default whenever hitting
enter on one of them.
A fish function runs yazi by hitting `y` in the terminal for added velocity and
is able to remmeber the folder you were in when you quit the explorer.
