How to Create a Dotfiles Folder

In this video, I'll show you how you can create a dotfiles folder and move important configuration files there. We'll also learn how to set up symbolic links back to the original file locations so that your programs can find their configuration files. This prepares us to learn how to manage and share our dotfiles with Git in the next episode!
