Dotfiles are managed via gnu stow. From ~/.dotfiles, stow <dir> symlinks
its contents to the parent directory. Tooling (Python, Node, etc.) is managed
via mise.
Example:
stow zsh # Symlinks .zshrc
stow nvim # Symlinks ~/.config/nvim/This is a list of software I use all the time and wouldn't be as productive without it, feel free to pick and choose what you like.
