A set of my GNU/Linux configuration files.

The majority of the software is configured with literate configuration strategy via Emacs' Org Mode. This way has its advantages and disadvantages, but overall it's pretty nice to keep the configs interweaved with comments in a handful of files.

The files themselves are managed and deployed via yadm, but I mostly use Org Mode rich noweb whenever I can instead of what yadm offers.

My current GNU/Linux distribution is GNU Guix. In the context of this repo, Guix allows me to list all the used programs in manifests, which means I have the same set of programs across multiple machines. Looks for Org tables with "Guix dependency" in the header.

Literate configuration files:

• Emacs.org
• Desktop.org
• Console.org
• Guix.org
• Mail.org
