Setup.md

Setup

It's not too hard to setup first just grab both of these files and put them in your ~/ home directory.

Then you need to grab badwolf which is the theme for VIM that I'm currently using which can be done as follows:

curl -o ~/.vim/colors/badwolf.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sjl/badwolf/master/colors/badwolf.vim

Then you should just be able to open up VIM and run

:PlugInstall

and be good to go 😄
