How I like to set up my computer for software development in JavaScript and Python

##Mac OS Applications

• [Chrome] (https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/)
  • Use [Sign In to Chrome] (https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/signin.html) when you set up Chrome for the first time. Next time you need to set up a new machine, install Chrome and sign in, and your extensions and preferences will automatically sync up.
  • [Vimium] (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/vimium/dbepggeogbaibhgnhhndojpepiihcmeb?hl=en)
    • In Chrome, click Chrome > Preferences > Extensions, then scroll to Vimium and click Options.
      • Make sure https?://mail.google.com/* is listed in Excluded URLs and keys so that Vimium is disabled in Gmail.
      • Click Show Advanced Options at the bottom of the screen. Find the field titled 'Characters used for link hints' and remove the f character to avoid accidentally hitting a link after you invoke Vimium (by typing f). Click Save Options at the bottom of the screen.
  • [Postman] (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/postman/fhbjgbiflinjbdggehcddcbncdddomop?hl=en)

  • After you have installed Node (see below), create a build system in Sublime for Node. Copy from this repo at config/node.sublime-build, then in Sublime go to Tools > Build System > New Build System, delete the default code, and paste the text.
