New to Linux, running Debian (if that matters), dot files are configuration files, yes? Do I need to explore each app/UI/program to figure out the possible options? Are there any universals in Linux? Across distros?

Thanks!

    It doesn’t need to be (specifically) configuration files – you can add scripts as well. A script that installs every package you need and remove/mask the ones you do not, for example. Which can make a 30 minute long experience become a 3 one.
