How Symlinks Work

The dotfiles repo is the source of truth. Every config file is symlinked from ~/.config/ back into this repo — so edits are instantly live and automatically tracked by git.

~/.config/sketchybar             →  ~/dotfiles/sketchybar/
~/.config/aerospace/aerospace.toml →  ~/dotfiles/aerospace/aerospace.toml
~/.config/ghostty/config           →  ~/dotfiles/ghostty/config
~/.config/starship.toml            →  ~/dotfiles/starship/starship.toml
~/.config/lsd/config.yaml          →  ~/dotfiles/lsd/config.yaml
~/.config/fastfetch/config.jsonc   →  ~/dotfiles/fastfetch/config.jsonc
~/.zshrc                           →  ~/dotfiles/zsh/.zshrc
~/.config/fish/config.fish         →  ~/dotfiles/fish/config.fish

Floating, notch-aware menu bar replacement. Two frosted-glass pills sit on either side of the MacBook notch.
