Guide for setting up a new osx

Setup Mac OS X

This is just a personal script to help me remember all the steps required to setup a new osx machine in their correct order. I do not advise you to follow this guide if you don't know what you're doing.

Setup

1. Run software update

Make sure everything is up to date.

2. Install Xcode and/or "Command Line Tools"

More info on how to download Command Line Tools inside XCode can be found on StackOverflow

2.1 [Updated] MacOS Sierra

  • Download XCode from the AppStore
  • In the cli, run: xcode-select --install

4. Install homebrew, CLI tools, apps, vim and dotfiles

Run my personal setup script:

bash -c "`curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arthurgouveia/installme-osx/master/setup.sh`"

5. App Store

  • Spark
  • Wunderlist
  • Tweetbot

6. Manually

Good to go!

The next steps are mostly optional and I can work on them within some weeks of the initial setup.
