Quick setup of developer’s mac

So you have a new mac? Whatever.

Here are a few notes to help speed up installing some useful tools 

Broswers

1. Google Chrome
2. Firefox
3. Edge

Mobile Emulators

1. Xcode (developer tools) from the app store

   then the command-line tools:

    xcode-select --install
   

   Once Xcode is installed a link to the Ios simulator can be created by launching xcode:

   • Selecting ‘xcode’ menu -> ‘Open Developer Tool’ -> ‘simulator’.
   • Once the simulator is open, drag its icon from the Launcher into the ‘Applications’ directory

Command Line tools

1. Homebrew:

    ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
   

2. Git:

    brew install git
   

3. Node:

    brew install node
   

   if you have permission issues:

    sudo chown -R $USER:$GROUP ~/.npm
   

4. Node version management: (see Node version management AFTER points 5, and 6)

5. add git highlighting to the terminal:

   instructions: http://neverstopbuilding.com/gitpro

   short version:

    curl -o ~/.git-completion.bash 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash'
   
   

    curl -o ~/.git-prompt.sh "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh"
   

   if you are going to follow ‘iterm, with zsh and Material Theme’ add the following to .bash_profile:

    #!/bin/bash
   	
    source ~/.git-completion.bash
    source ~/.git-prompt.sh
   	
    alias ll='ls -lah'
    alias gg='git status -s'
   	
   

if you are NOT going to follow ‘iterm, with zsh and Material Theme’ add the following to .bash_profile:

```
#!/bin/bash

source ~/.git-completion.bash
source ~/.git-prompt.sh


MAGENTA="\[\033[0;35m\]"
YELLOW="\[\033[0;33m\]"
BLUE="\[\033[34m\]"
LIGHT_GRAY="\[\033[0;37m\]"
CYAN="\[\033[0;36m\]"
GREEN="\[\033[0;32m\]"
GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE=true
export LS_OPTIONS='--color=auto'
export CLICOLOR='Yes'
export LSCOLORS=gxfxbEaEBxxEhEhBaDaCaD

export PS1=$LIGHT_GRAY"\u@\h"'$(
if [[ $(__git_ps1) =~ \*\)$ ]]
# a file has been modified but not added
then echo "'$YELLOW'"$(__git_ps1 " (%s)")
elif [[ $(__git_ps1) =~ \+\)$ ]]
# a file has been added, but not commited
then echo "'$MAGENTA'"$(__git_ps1 " (%s)")
# the state is clean, changes are commited
else echo "'$CYAN'"$(__git_ps1 " (%s)")
fi)'$BLUE" \w"$GREEN": "

alias ll='ls -lah'
alias gg='git status -s'
