Laptop Setup Script

Thoughtbot's Ruby guide to Mac OSX development inspired me to create my own script to install and update all the tools I use for development and general use. This also serves as documenting what I installed and more importantly how since I'm using the same commands I ran but now in reusable shell scripts.

Installation

• Set Terminal with Full Disk Access temporarily
• xcode-select --install for command line tools
• Collect GitHub access tokens from 1Password (CLI and VS Code)
• git clone https://javierjulio@github.com/javierjulio/laptop.git ~/Projects/laptop
• Import Terminal Theme as default and then restart
• cd ~/Projects/laptop && ./laptop
• Install Visual Studio Code sync settings extension and provide GitHub access token

Development

Run tests: bats -r test
