This repository contains my personal dotfiles, which are the configuration files for various applications and tools on my system. I use GNU Stow as a convenient tool to manage these dotfiles.
Feel free to utilize these dotfiles in your own setup. GNU Stow simplifies the process of incorporating them into your system. Here's a brief guide on how to get started:

Use GNU Stow to selectively apply the desired dotfiles:

<directory-name>with the name of the specific directory containing the dotfiles you wish to use. For example, if you want to apply the dotfiles for the Kitty terminal emulator, usestow .config/kittyto symlink the Kitty configuration files to the appropriate locations.You can stow multiple directories or individual dotfiles based on your requirements.
