Description
Hey Mate,
This is an amazing repo! I love the file structure you've made and am impressed by the ease of use.
Problem
The only thing that got me was running the thing! I know it's small, but it doesn't mention that you require zsh for this to function. The problem is the install script scripts/bootstrap works in bash and I assumed all dotfiles would too.

Just a small change in the README file saying you need zsh installed as default shell would help this for other noobs like me 👌
Cheers,
Ben

Research direction
Start with the README and inspect scripts/bootstrap to confirm the shell requirement described in the issue. Update the README to state that zsh must be installed and set as the default shell; it is done when a new user can see this requirement before running the dotfiles.
