#Full Linux Development Setup Note: Only Debian based distros.

This is a walk through to set up a development environment on a freshly installed Ubuntu or Linux Mint.

Some additional packages:

    pip install ipython
  

• virtualenvwrapper: Makes working with virtualenvs a breeze

    pip install virtualenvwrapper
  

• BeautifulSoup: HTML/XML manipulation library

    pip install bs4
  

• Flask: The most user-friendly web framework in the Python ecosystem

    $ pip install flask
  

• SQLAlchemy: Is there even a competitor for database ORMs? I honestly don't know the answer to that.

    $
  

• tox, mock, py.test, coverage, pylint, pep8: Makes testing actually enjoyable

    $
  

• Pandas / numpy: Awesome library for data analysis

    $
  

• selfspy: Really cool "Quantified Self" daemon

    $
  

• pdb: For someone coming from C/C++, ipdb is a godsend. Simply the best Python debugger

    $

    $
  

• pypy: It's fun to write your own language in RPython and get a JIT-enabled interpreter for it for free

    $
  

• HTTPie: A better curl than curl

#Node

Remove any previously installed packages

Go to /usr/local/lib and delete any node and node_modules
Go to /usr/local/include and delete any node and node_modules directory
If you installed with brew install node, then run brew uninstall node in your terminal
Check your Home directory for any local or lib or include folders, and delete any node or node_modules from there
Go to /usr/local/bin and delete any node executable

After that, do this:

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/npm
sudo rm /usr/local/share/man/man1/node.1
sudo rm /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d
sudo rm -rf ~/.npm
sudo rm -rf ~/.node-gyp
sudo rm /opt/local/bin/node
sudo rm /opt/local/include/node
sudo rm -rf /opt/local/lib/node_modules
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/include/node/

##Setup Node.js v5.0 on Ubuntu (THIS WILL NOT UPDATE NODE)

###Build Essential tools $ sudo apt-get install -y build-essential

Download Node Source

$ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_5.x | sudo -E bash -

Install with

$ sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

Steps to resolve "‘failed to fetch" error which might come

"Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release
Unable to find expected entry ‘main/binary-i386/Packages’ in Release file 
(Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)"

1. Open a new Terminal window and run the following command (assuming you’re on the Stable Channel,
	if not, see the featured comment):

	sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list
	
2.In the text file that opens edit the file so that the line reads:
	
	deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main
		
	The only addition you need to make is entering the [amd64] architecture after
	‘deb’ but preceding the ‘http’. Do not edit or replace any other text in this file.
	
3.Hit Save. Close the Gedit window.

	Now return to the Terminal and refresh your package list by running:

	sudo apt-get update

(NOTE) - Update Node by deleting the previous version and installing the newer one

R

# Change the ubuntu package version from wily to your system's.

$ gpg -a --export E084DAB9 | sudo apt-key add -
$ sudo apt-get update
