## What it is
A collection of custom Linux dotfiles (zsh, neovim, tmux, git, ssh, etc.) managed with GNU stow, styled for a terminal-centric 'rice' setup. It provides a versioned, symlink-based approach to organizing and sharing per-user configuration files.

## Use cases
- set up a customized linux terminal environment
- manage dotfiles with gnu stow
- get a riced neovim and tmux config
- back up and sync shell configs across machines
- customize zsh prompt and themes
- copy a unixporn-style terminal setup

## When to choose
- you want a polished, terminal-only linux setup to adopt or adapt
- you need a simple stow-based dotfile management pattern
- you like the author's neovim, zsh, or tmux aesthetics

## When to avoid
- you need a cross-platform or GUI desktop configuration
- you want a dotfile manager with no manual setup
- you need actively maintained window manager configs (moved to the classic branch)

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, configuration-management, cli, theme
- domain: developer-tools, operating-systems
- platform: cli
