dotfiles

Because life's too short to manually setup my machine

get started

  1. Install/Boot new machine, run through mac setup
  2. run git --version. This will trigger a prompt to install xcode command line tools
  3. Install/agree to xcode command line tools
  4. Create dev directory and clone this repo:
mkdir dev && cd dev && git clone https://github.com/tay1orjones/dotfiles.git && cd dotfiles
  1. Replace links to private fonts in ./setup.sh with live URLs from dropbox.com
  2. Run from home directory:
 sh setup.sh

post set up

  1. Configure night shift (I've not found a way to automatically configure)

  2. Add Dropbox folder to dock (best to do this once logged into dropbox and it's began syncing)

    defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add '<dict><key>tile-data</key><dict><key>arrangement</key><integer>1</integer><key>displayas</key><integer>1</integer><key>file-label</key><string>Dropbox</string><key>file-type</key><integer>2</integer><key>preferreditemsize</key><string>-1</string><key>showas</key><integer>2</integer><key>file-data</key><dict><key>_CFURLString</key><string>file:///Users/taylorjones/Dropbox/</string><key>_CFURLStringType</key><integer>15</integer></dict></dict><key>tile-type</key><string>directory-tile</string></dict>'
