Dotfiles

Personal macOS development environment setup and configuration management.

Overview

This repository contains scripts and configuration for setting up a complete development environment on macOS. It automates the installation of essential tools, applications, and development repositories.

Directory Structure

• fresh.sh - Main installation script that sets up the entire environment
• Brewfile - Homebrew bundle file defining all packages and applications to install
• clone.sh - Script for cloning specific development repositories
• .config/ - Configuration files for various tools (managed via Stow)

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• macOS
• Internet connection
• SSH key configured for GitHub (for repository cloning)

Installation

Run the fresh install script:

./fresh.sh

This will:

1. Install oh-my-zsh (if not already installed)
2. Install Homebrew (if not already installed)
3. Update Homebrew and install bundle support
4. Install all packages defined in Brewfile
5. Create directory structure (~/code/intellistack, ~/code/jerrodmathis)
6. Clone repositories via clone.sh
7. Create symlinks for dotfiles using Stow

Manual Steps

2. Sign into applications (1Password, Spotify, etc.)
3. Configure shell - restart terminal to load oh-my-zsh
4. Import application settings if you have backups

Customization

• Edit Brewfile to add/remove packages
• Modify clone.sh to include different repositories
• Add configuration files to .config/ directory
