# Paul's Mac Setup

This is the start of a mac setup guide to have a standard process to quickly setup a new mac computer.  It will include general system configuration and programs, as well as developer specific additions.  

It relies on Homebrew for installs, and a bare git dotfile repo for developer configurations.

You can find a more extended writeup on my blog: https://paultman.com/versioning-for-dev-tool-configs-git-for-dotfiles/

## Tool and Application Instalation

I have written bash scripts, based on the work of others, to create two install files.  The first is for non-gui tools, the second relies on casks for gui applications.  Brew itself will check and install x-code comman line tools as necessary.

### brewInstalls.sh

This script first makes Homebrew updates then installs common tools like: 

- Gnu Coreutils

- findutils

- set

- wget

- openssh

- z

- git

- gh

- git-delta

- glances

- tree

Have a look at the file for more details.

To check installs with version:

> brew list --versions

### brewCaskInstalls.sh

This script focuses on common gui based application installs.  It is divided into a general apps section and developer apps section.

- discord

- evernote

- firefox

- font-fira-code

- google-chrome

- grandperspective

- iterm2

- nordvpn

- postman

- slack

- sourcetree

- visual-studio-code

- vlc

- whatsapp

- zoom

To check app versions use:

`> brew list --cask --versions`

### Dotfile dependencies

I have a few basic dotfile configs here, and there are a few dependencities:

Install oh-my-zsh, referenced in .zshrc

`> sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"`

and install the monokai theme, referenced in .vimrc

`> curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crusoexia/vim-monokai/master/colors/monokai.vim -o  ~/.vim/colors/monokai.vim --create-dirs`
