Bootstrapping a New Machine

1. Install Xcode command line tools

    xcode-select --install
   

2. Install Homebrew

    /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
   

3. Create a new SSH key for Github

    # RSA
    ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C <EMAIL_OR_LABEL>
    pbcopy < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
    
    # or ed25519
    ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C <EMAIL_OR_LABEL>
    pbcopy < ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
   

4. Clone this repository

    git clone [email protected]:mrosales/dotfiles.git ~/.dotfiles
   

5. Make sure you are logged in to the Mac App Store

6. Install applications with the included Brewfile

    cd ~/.dotfiles
    /usr/local/bin/brew bundle
   

7. Run the install scripts

    bash ./scripts/install
   

8. Run the bootstrap scripts to symlink files into place

    bash ./scripts/bootstrap.sh
   

9. Set your brew-installed zsh as your login shell

    echo $(brew --prefix)/bin/zsh | sudo tee -a /etc/shells
    echo $(brew --prefix)/bin/bash | sudo tee -a /etc/shells
   
    chsh -s $(brew --prefix)/bin/zsh
   

10. Open up a new shell and hopefully it works!

      • Bartender
    • Restore VSCode settings (install "Settings Sync" and login with Github)
    • Goland Theme
    • iTerm Profile & icon
    • Create a ~/.localrc file for local secrets
