0-100 macOS bootstrap and topical setup maintained with a simple Makefile

Overbryd's dotfiles

Bootstrap

On a new mac, open a Terminal and run:

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Overbryd/dotfiles/master/bootstrap.sh
chmod +x bootstrap.sh
./bootstrap.sh

Maintenance

Enter the ~/dotfiles directory, make changes and make it:

cd ~/dotfiles
make

The Makefile contains sections for installing *nix command line utilities, macOS applications, macOS settings and maintaing specific configurations.

So you can also only re-make a section of the project, for example the macOS dock settings:

cd ~/dotfiles
make defaults-Dock

Or only rebuild your vim:

cd ~/dotfiles
make vim

Or upgrade all installed packages:

cd ~/dotfiles
make brew
