Set up a new mac

This repo is meant for personal use—there's some stuff here that will break if you try to use it unmodified on your system. Feel free, however, to clone it and modify it as you see fit. That's more of less what this is anyway, my own personalized version of many people's different setup scripts.

Setup

First, download and unzip this repo:

curl -Lk -o "$HOME/Downloads/new-mac.zip" "https://github.com/chadlavi/new-mac/archive/master.zip" && unzip $HOME/Downloads/new-mac.zip -d $HOME/Downloads/ && cd $HOME/Downloads/new-mac-master

Then, run the setup script:

./setup.sh

setup.sh is just a wrapper to run tweaks.sh, homebrew.sh, and ohmyzsh.sh.

What does it do?

tweaks.sh

Sets various system settings and preferences—this is just an edited version of osx-for-hackers.sh.

homebrew.sh

Prompts you to download Xcode, then sets up Homebrew and installs the formulae and casks listed in brewlist and casklist.

After downloading Dropbox via brew cask install dropbox, it will open.

ohmyzsh.sh

Sets up OhMyZsh and symlinks my dotfiles from Dropbox.
