# Installing useful tools
## Vim
Create symlink
```bash
ln -s path/to/repository/generic_working_machine/vimrc ~/.vim/vimrc
```
1. In general, `~/.vim/vimrc` contains all plugins, which must be installed incl. the plugin manager itself ([vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug))
	1. To install the listed plugins, open vim, enter `:PlugInstall` and press on enter
2. Set up `ryanoasis/vim-devicons`
	1. Download and install patched font containing glyphs/icons [here](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts?tab=readme-ov-file#patched-fonts), i.e. JetBrainsMono Nerd Font
	2. Change font in terminal settings; for iTerm2 go to `Profiles > Text > Font` and select the installed Nerd Font

ln -s path/to/repository/generic_working_machine/zshrc ~/.zshrc
```

## tmux
Create symlink
```bash
ln -s path/to/repository/generic_working_machine/tmux.conf ~/.tmux.conf
