What is this?A dotfiles repository that provides Le Wagon coding bootcamp's default development environment setup, configuring the terminal (oh-my-zsh), git, and Visual Studio Code for its students.
Is this an app or just configuration scripts?It's a set of configuration files and a setup script rather than an application: running it configures zsh, git, and VS Code on your machine instead of installing a new program you launch.
Do I need anything installed before running the setup?You need a terminal with zsh and git already available, since the scripts configure oh-my-zsh and git rather than installing a shell from scratch.
Who is this setup meant for?It's built specifically for students enrolled in Le Wagon's coding bootcamp, giving everyone the same pre-configured dev environment on day one.
What is Le Wagon?Le Wagon is a coding bootcamp; this repo standardizes the terminal, git, and editor setup for its students so everyone starts a course with the same environment.
Why oh-my-zsh instead of plain zsh?oh-my-zsh adds themes, plugins, and sane defaults on top of zsh, making the command line friendlier for bootcamp students who are new to it.
Does it also set up my code editor?Yes, alongside zsh and git, the setup configures Visual Studio Code to match the tooling used throughout the Le Wagon curriculum.
