## What it is
Wes Bos's personal dotfiles repository containing configuration files for VS Code, Better Touch Tool, keyboard shortcuts, and JavaScript snippets. It serves as a reference for his editor settings and workflow automations rather than an installable tool.

## Use cases
- see what vscode settings wes bos uses
- find recommended vs code extensions
- get javascript snippets for vscode
- reference better touch tool presets for mac
- set up custom vscode keybindings
- copy editor config ideas for my own dotfiles

## When to choose
- you want inspiration for your own VS Code setup or editor configuration
- you're curious about a specific setting or extension Wes uses
- you want ready-made JavaScript snippets or keybindings to adapt

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained tool or library with a license and installable package
- you want a general-purpose dotfiles manager or framework
- you expect settings to work unchanged on non-macOS setups

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, configuration-management, editor
- domain: developer-tools, text-editors
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: dotfiles, vscode, bettertouchtool, personal-config, snippets, macos
