## What it is
A personal dotfiles repository managing a complete terminal development environment across zsh, Neovim, tmux, and Git, bootstrapped with Mise and Homebrew. It targets Apple Silicon macOS primarily, with a devcontainer for portable Ubuntu testing.

## Use cases
- set up a new mac development machine from scratch
- manage zsh and neovim configuration in version control
- bootstrap homebrew packages and fonts automatically
- get a tmux and vim-based terminal workflow
- sync shell and git config across machines

## When to choose
- you want a complete, opinionated macOS terminal environment you can install with one command
- you like vim/tmux-centric workflows and want a real-world reference config
- you want a mise-based bootstrap for reproducible machine setup

## When to avoid
- you need a neutral starter kit rather than someone's personal setup
- you are not on macOS or unwilling to adapt Homebrew/Apple Silicon assumptions
- you prefer IDE-based development over terminal tooling

## Facets
- artifact type: infra-config
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, configuration-management, cli, editor, terminal-ui
- domain: developer-tools, self-hosted
- platform: cli
- tags: dotfiles, zsh, neovim, tmux, homebrew, starship, ghostty, mise, bootstrap, macos-setup, command-line, automation, macos, linux
