ddx32's dotfiles

This is my highly opinionated collection of dotfiles and installation scripts meant to set up a macOS workstation from scratch (and keep its settings in sync with the repo).

Feel free to fork, but make sure you understand what each line does. At a minimum, you should change things like the Git username and email and purchased apps to be installed via Mac App Store (brew-mas-install.sh).

Shoutout to Mathias Bynens, his dotfiles repo and the multiple credited authors in the readme of his repo, who served as a baseline for my configuration.

Installation

• Clone this repo
• Run bootstrap.sh. This copies or updates the dotfiles in your home directory gracefully using rsync.
• Run scripts/macos-init.sh from your home directory to macOS suck a bit less out of the box and set up basic development tools
• Run scripts/brew-mas-install.sh to install the remaining packages and apps to make life easier
• Note any extra setup required to get a machine up and running and add them to the install scripts

Notes

Tested on macOS 12.2 through 14.3
