Sometimes I get a new computer and install stuff. I've been slowly trying to move my life into the web browser but clearly we have a way to go. Most of this was thrashing with weird OS X and Xcode black boxes. But anyhow, here's what I did.
  • Firefox
  • Chrome
  • Alfred
  • iTerm
  • Brackets
  • Xcode

  • git
  • node
  • Android SDK
