This repository provides my default mac environment setup. Feel free to fork and customize.
The Xcode commandline tools are required to install Homebrew. You can install them by running:
xcode-select --install
Run the setup script. This will:
- Install default
dotfilesinto user home directory. These are installed with symbolic links so any changes to these files will be reflected in themac-setuprepo. - Install homebrew
- Install brew apps, casks, fonts (from
Brewfile) - Set shell as Fish
- Install some VS Code extensions using their CLI
- Install Typr (Utility I wrote for tracking words typed per day, You probably don't want this)
To install, clone the repo and run ./setup:
git clone https://github.com/chrisdail/mac-setup.git ~/code/mac-setup
cd ~/code/mac-setup
./setup
If you want to clone this repo and customize things, you probably want to:
- Remove Typr (probably of no use to you)
- Edit
dotfiles/.gitconfigto make sure your username/email are there - Update any paths/aliases in any dotfiles
- Update any packages you may want to use in
Brewfile
Mouse Acceleration fix is located in the misc directory.
