Laptop

Laptop is a set of scripts to get your laptop set up as a development machine. Forked from thoughtbot and modified to match our needs.

Mac OS X

First, install GCC for OS X. (requires OS X 10.6 or higher)

Then, run this one-liner:

bash < <(curl -s https://github.com/guusen/laptop/raw/master/mac)

What it sets up

• SSH public keys (for authenticating with services like Github and Heroku)
• Homebrew (for managing operating system libraries)
• Postgres (for storing relational data)
• Memcached (for caching data and objects in memory)
• MongoDB (for storing document-oriented data)
• Redis (for storing key-value data)
• ImageMagick (for cropping and resizing images)
• RVM (for managing versions of the Ruby programming language)
• Ruby 1.9.3 stable (for writing general-purpose code)
• Bundler gem (for managing Ruby libraries)
• Rails gem (for writing web applications)
• Heroku gem (for interacting with the Heroku API)
• Postgres gem (for making Ruby talk to SQL databases)

It should take about 30 minutes for everything to install, depending on your machine.
