Laptop Setup Script

Thoughtbot's Ruby guide to Mac OSX development inspired me to create my own set of scripts to install or update all the common tools I use for development (and in general). Most tools are updated by simply rerunning the script but some major ones are left out as a precaution. For example, Ruby, Node or any Homebrew packages won't be updated if you rerun the laptop script. This also serves as documenting what tools I installed which I loved how easy it is to do programmatically using bash.
