Default script for new machines about orbstack HOT 2 CLOSED

Can you elaborate a bit more on the use case? For example, do you manually create new machines often? I'm having a hard time seeing how this would be more convenient.

If you use the CLI to create new machines, you could write a script like this:

orb create "$1" && orb -m "$1" ~/Documents/setup-machine.sh

Would #11 possibly be a more general solution to this?

I just got so used that most apps only have a gui, that I never even looked at creating a new machine via cli. That solves my whole point.

The use case is basically fairly simple, I just like to throw away my main machine maybe once a week. I always just use what's there for testing everything, it's definitely got better with orb, because I now can throw away the machine and must not clean up my mac itself every other week. And I know that I could just create a new machine and throw that away afterwards, but I will never get used to that.
