#Tools Install

Overview

This is a script which intends to get a base Debian/Darwin box productive for multi language development with a single execution. It was originally inspired by files.zate.org/code.sh

I started working on this because I was running a virtual debian environment in a container and was frequently rebuilding it - so of course anything which can be repeated, can be scripted. Originally this script was a note which I kept stashed and pulled out periodically and then modified over time. I added it to GitHub hoping that it saves people some time and that others may help improve it. I use this now to ensure a consistent development environment when I get a new laptop or set up a new container for development.

Scope

This script is highly opinionated as to what productive means and is focused on installing the following:

• Homebrew (Mac)
• VS Code
• Various VS Code extensions which I find useful
• Go (via GVM)
• Python (via Pyenv)
• Docker
• Flutter
• GCP SDK
• Node (via nvm)
• Ollama (for local LLM execution)
• Rectangle (Mac utility for window management)
• Hyper (Mac terminal)
• Chrome
• Various libraries and tools which I find useful

Running the Script

This script is intended to run in a bash or zsh shell and can run by executing:

./install.sh
Usage: ./install.sh {all|chrome|code|python|flutter|go|docker|node|misc_mac_tools}...
