I just got a new macbook, and have had to install a bunch of 💩 in order to get the setup I like. Documenting what I did here!

Applications to Install

Google Chrome
- Some nice developer chrome extensions:
  - https://vimium.github.io/
  - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/octotree/bkhaagjahfmjljalopjnoealnfndnagc
iTerm2
Spotify
Slack
Rectangle is a free alternative that does the same
- Used for replicating the only thing I liked about Windows: the cmd + arrow functionality to snap applications to the left/right of the screen, or to make them full screen

Other things to Setup

iCloud
vimrc: https://github.com/amix/vimrc

Python

For some reason, Mac OS still ships with Python 2.7 (as of March 7, 2020). So install Python 3:

brew install python3

pyenv

pyenv pyenv lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python. Install it with brew:

brew install pyenv

Validate the installation worked:

→ pyenv --version
pyenv 1.2.16

Now install Python 3.10.0, and set it so that it is the global Python.

pyenv install 3.10.0
pyenv global 3.10.0

And then add eval "$(pyenv init --path)" to the end of your ~/.zshrc. Validate that worked properly by running:

→ python --version
Python 3.10.0

→ which python
/Users/ianwhitestone/.pyenv/shims/python

Poetry

Install poetry with:

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/python-poetry/poetry/master/get-poetry.py | python

Then add source $HOME/.poetry/env to your ~/.zshrc or ~/.bash_profile, and then re-source your shell with source ~/.zshrc or source ~/.bash_profile.
