This is a fork of the original repository located at: https://github.com/danielsaidi/osx

This repository contains scripts that can be used to setup a brand new MacBook within minutes. It applies OSX settings, installs applications and npm packages and can even configure your SSH keys.

To trigger the main setup script, run ./setup.sh. This will take you to the main menu, where all available setup options are presented. You can also type ./setup.sh [OPTION] to trigger a specific setup script.

Once you run the system script, you get access to amazing tools like Homebrew, Homebrew-Cask, Brew Bundle, RubyGems, NPM etc. You will then be able to use Brewfile and Gemfile to manage packages.

Brewfile is used to specify which packages and applications you want to install with Homebrew and Homebrew Cask. You can update packages in this file by running the system script and selecting brew, or simply just run brew bundle from the terminal.

Gemfile is used to handle packages you want to install with RubyGems. You can update packages in this file, by running the system script and selecting gem, or simply just run bundle install from the terminal.

I use Node and npm to install web development software, as well as tools that I use for hybrid app development. However, since these libs are global, I manage these installations from scripts/npm.sh instead of a package.json file.
