## Installation



### First steps



Install:

- [brew](https://brew.sh/) - package manager for installing all other software

- [zprezto](https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto) to install zsh CLI plugins

### Essentials



1. CLI

   ```

   brew install gnupg \

                git \

                jq \

                wget \

                golang \

                python3 \

                httpie \

                tree \

                ack \

                pyenv \

                watch \

                neovim # add alias alias vim='nvim'   

   ```

2. Fonts:

   ```

  

   brew tap homebrew/cask-fonts 

   brew install svn

   brew install font-monaspace \

                font-source-code-pro \

                font-jetbrains-mono \

                font-fira-code-nerd-font \

                font-fira-sans \

                font-work-sans --cask # font from the golang brand book

   ```

2. Applications:

   ```

   brew install firefox \

                iterm2 \

                google-chrome \

                opera \

                slack --cask

   ```

   

   ```

   brew install --cast rancher

   ```

   

   ```

   brew install discord --cask

   ```

   Utils ([Amethyst](https://ianyh.com/amethyst/) and [keepingyouawake](https://github.com/newmarcel/KeepingYouAwake)):

   ```

   brew cask install amethyst \

                     keepingyouawake

   ```

   My favorite password manager:

   ```

   brew cask install keepassx 

   ```

   

   Good to practice typing from time to time:

   

   ```

   brew install gnu-typist

   ```

   

3. Solid editor, many ideas in atom or vs-code are directly borrowed from sublime:

   ```

   brew install sublime-text --cask

   ```

   

4. A simple timer for [pomodoro](https://francescocirillo.com/pages/pomodoro-technique):

   ```

   brew install michaelvillar-timer --cask

   ```   

### Development Tools



0. IDE / Coding Tools:

 

   ```

   brew cask install visual-studio-code \

                     sourcetree # best GUI for git

   ```

   

   [Hub](https://hub.github.com/) for working with github:

   ```

   brew install hub

   ```

   

   Db:

   

   ```

   brew cask install nosqlbooster-for-mongodb

   # mongo CLI

   brew tap mongodb/brew

   brew install [email protected]

   ```

   

1. Jetbrains:

   ```

   brew cask install intellij-idea

   ```

2. Kubernetes:

   ```

   brew install kubernetes-cli \

                k3d \

                minikube \

                kubectx

   ```

   [Telepresence](https://www.telepresence.io/):

   

   ```

   brew cask install osxfuse

   brew install datawire/blackbird/telepresence

   ```

   Promtools:

   ```

   brew install prometheus

   ```

   

3. Cloud Platoforms

   - Fundamentals:

   

     ```

     brew install opentofu

     ```

     

     Check also [terragrunt](https://github.com/gruntwork-io/terragrunt)

   - Azure: ```brew install azure-cli```

   - AWS (check also [guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/install-macos.html)):

   

     - ```brew install awscli```

     - install browser plugin for simplier switching between roles: [aws-extend-switch-roles](https://github.com/tilfin/aws-extend-switch-roles)

4. [Gopass](https://github.com/gopasspw/gopass/) - sharing secrets with git and gpg:

   

   ```

   brew install gopass

   ```

   

   Works really well with scripts for setting your infrastructure.

   

5. Virtualbox with vagrant and packer:

   ```

   brew cask install virtualbox \

                     vagrant \

                     packer

   ````

   

6. Machine Learning:

   ```

   brew cask install anaconda

   ```

   

### Notes



So far zim-wiki works for me the best.

```

brew install python@3 \

             gtk-mac-integration \

             pygobject3 \

             adwaita-icon-theme # for icons in the zim-wiki UI

brew install zim

```

  

and create in Automator - Application that runs a shell script:

```

zim

```

Now, let's install zim-wiki plugins: Journal and TODO.

### Apps for Docs, Diagrams, etc



1. Latex - writings:

   ```

   brew cask install mactex 

   ```

2. High Q diagrams:

   ```

   brew cask install yed

   ```
