# BTT-Practical

A complete Macbook Pro Touch Bar overhaul, focused on a clean, minimalistic

design for those interested in hardware stats, essential developer tools and

quick, intuitive shortcuts. 

This runs on BetterTouchTool, which can be purchased [here](https://folivora.ai/buy). 

## Installation

In order to get certain system information that is displayed on the Touch Bar,

you will need to install some `brew` and `gem` packages (the list can be found under packages, at the bottom of this README). If you aren't a 

developer, you will still have to download the `XCode Developer Tools` if you haven't already, which will take up about 4GB of storage and may require a password during installation. This is official Apple software. If this is unfamiliar, don't worry. The entire process is handled for you. 

To install, simply open `Terminal.app` (Terminal), and paste the following:

```

git clone https://github.com/jlehrer1/BTT-Practical.git

cd BTT-Practical/

chmod +x requirements.sh

./requirements.sh

cd ..

rm -rf BTT-Practical

```
