First Steps

If you're new to using Geez, follow these initial steps to set up and configure your environment.

After you've successfully installed Geez, open a terminal window and run the following command:

geez init

Don't Be Scared

Don't worry, you won't receive any emails from Geez. When you run geez init, it will prompt you to provide your email address and name. These details are required by Git to associate your name and email with any changes you make.

Running geez init will create your configuration file, and it will be symlinked to $GEEZ/.geez.yml. Feel free to open this configuration file with your favorite text editor and take a closer look at its contents.

For a better understanding of Geez's core concepts, we recommend reading through the Core Concepts documentation before you proceed.

Now you're all set to start using Geez with confidence!
