Files and methods used to setup my Mac from scratch.

Feel free to follow along and copy what looks good to you. I would suggest referring to the great work at https://sourabhbajaj.com/mac-setup as a starting point for recipes on how to get your mac up and going.

Screenshots

By default, screenshots go to the desktop. It is recommended to put them into a dedicated location.

mkdir ~/Screenshots
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location ${HOME}/Screenshots
killall SystemUIServer

Always show hidden files

Press cmd+shift+. to temporarily show hidden files in Finder. But consider making that permanent.

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles True
killall Finder

Emoji Text Substitution

Enable slack style text substitution everywhere by installing a plist into your Keyboard > Text preferences. Follow the instructions here: https://github.com/warpling/Macmoji

Also, add some of your other favorites, such as:

  • -> = →
  • ehh = ¯_(ツ)_/¯
  • omw = On my way!

Note that text replacement syncs across iCloud to all your devices, so you should only have to do this once. That could be a good thing or a bad thing. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also note that not all applications support text replacement. Check the application's menu bar for support: Edit > Substitutions. If it's not supported, you'll need to use alfred or spotlight to generate the new text, then copy-paste to the destination.

Modifier Keys --- this doesn't work, maybe Alfred snippets?

If you're using an external non-Apple keyboard, you will likely need to map the modifier keys in System Settings. Go to Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Modifier Keys and swap the Command and Option keys.

Enable Home and End Keys

For whatever reason, Macs don't acknowledge the sane use of home and end, which should be to take the cursor to the beginning and end of the line. Instead, it takes the cursor to the beginning and end of the document. The heck?

To fix this, let's put a key bindings file in place:

cp -pr Library/KeyBindings ~/Library

This will remap the following in most Mac apps including Chrome (some apps do their own key handling):

  • Home and End will go to start and end of line
  • Shift+Home and Shift+End will select to start and end of line
  • Ctrl+Home and Ctrl+End will go to start and end of document
  • Ctrl+/ is mapped to noop so that it won't beep at you when using it in other apps

Note that you will need to reboot after creating this file for it to take effect

Finder

Customize Finder with the following preferences:

  • Customize Toolbar - path, view, group, new folder, trash, tags, share, actions
  • General > New Finder show > Home
  • Sidebar > check Home -- uncheck Shared
  • Advanced > Show extensions

Then, drop other important folder to the Favorites part of the sidebar, such as src and Screenshots.

To add Trash to the sidebar, open the Trash from the dockbar, go to the File menu and click Add to Sidebar.

Cleanup Dock Bar

Remove all the default items. I prefer to use alfred to launch applications, so the dock bar will be used only to show running applications.

Messages

Customize Messages with the following preferences:

  • General > play sound effects = off
  • iMessage > enable messages in icloud = on

Install Apps

Using the app store, install the following:

  • bettersnaptool - app store
    • Setup Preferences as follows:
      • General > start on mac starts
      • Keyboard shortcuts:
        • ctrl+opt+cmd+numkeys = halves and quarters
        • ctrl+opt+cmd left = 2/3 left
        • ctrl+opt+cmd right = 2/3 right
        • ctrl+opt+cmd up = max
        • ctrl+opt+cmd down = restore
  • unarchiver
  • xcode

Install Font

Fira Code is a great font for coding. Another repo forked it and added glyphs to the font to make it a great dev font.

Download https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/raw/master/patched-fonts/FiraCode/Medium/FiraCodeNerdFont-Medium.ttf and double-click the file to install.

The brew version is way out of date, so download and install this one directly instead.

This is a ligature and antialiased font, so use it with those settings turned on. See that github repo for details.

Homebrew

Install the missing package manager for macOS by following the instructions at https://brew.sh:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

Formulae

When installing the following brew formulae, pay extra attention to notices indicating changes that must be made to shell profile scripts. I've handled them in the terminal setup below, but you should know why we need to do it.

  • ack - faster grep
  • bash-completion - auto complete library; additional ones available
  • fzf - fuzzy finder
  • gh - github cli
  • git - source control
  • git-lfs - git large file support
  • go - go language
  • htop - process viewer better than top
  • nvm - node package manager
    • install node
    • install yarn
  • python3 - python language
  • openssl - ssl tools
  • rustup - rust language
  • sqlite3 - self-contained sql engine and tools
  • telnet - web resource tool
  • the_silver_searcher - aka ag - faster grep
  • tree - recursive directory listing
  • virtualenv - python environment management
  • wget - web resource tool
  • zsh - shell

Casks

Install the following brew casks:

  • alfred - better than stoplight
    • Preferences > General > Launch at login
    • Preferences > General > Hotkey - cmd+space
  • android-platform-tools - dev tool
  • android-sdk - dev tool
  • discord - messaging app
  • github - github desktop app
  • hammerspoon - mac automation
  • iterm2 - setup later
  • key-codes - view code of pressed key
  • keystore-explorer - exactly what it says
  • postman - API tool
  • react-native-debugger - dev tool
  • scroll-reverser - trackpad should be like an ipad, mouse should be reverse of that
    • Preferences > App > Start at login
    • Preferences > Scrolling > Enable
    • Preferences > Scrolling > Reverse Vertical
    • Preferences > Scrolling > Reverse Mouse
  • sensiblesidebuttons - support mouse side click button
    • Preferences > Enabled
    • Preferences > Trigger on Mouse Down
  • slack - messaging app
  • visual-studio-code - setup later

Quick Look Plugins Casks

Using finder, selecting a file and tapping the space bar will bring up the Quick Look preview of the file. This is different than the Finder preview.

Install the following quick look plugins casks:

Note some of these apps aren't official Apple apps, so you may need to reinstall using the no quarantine option: brew install --cask --no-quarantine CASK_NAME_HERE

  • qlmarkdown - preview markdown in github style
  • syntax-highlight - preview source files
  • betterzip - preview archives - teases as a paid app but the included quick look is free

Note that each of these install as apps, so you'll need to launch each app for the first time to activate the plugin.

Quick Look Permission Notes

To get some of these plugins working in Catalina+, you might need to remove the quarantine attribute. Installing using the --no-quarantine option in brew should handle this, but if all else fails, you can correct the situation manually.

For example, if a quicklook plugin isn't working, run this to see the attributes:

xattr -r ~/Library/QuickLook

And run this to remove the attributes:

xattr -d -r com.apple.quarantine ~/Library/QuickLook

Then, restart your system, or hopefully qlmanage -r will suffice.

Folder Icons

In Finder, the Mac default folders show some awesome icons on them, but everything else is blank. If that bugs you, try out this tool. Warning: this installs a ton of dependencies!

brew install --cask folderify

You can use folderfy to create transparent masked icons -- see https://github.com/lgarron/folderify for more details. Included are some icons I use, so let's apply them now:

mkdir -p ~/bin
folderify icons/bolt-lightning.png ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/src
folderify icons/code.png ~/src
mkdir -p ~/temp
folderify icons/poo.png ~/temp
mkdir -p ~/Screenshots
folderify icons/crop.png ~/Screenshots

Note that if you add these folders to the sidebar, mac only supports its own icons here (or those who have written a Finder Sync Extension).

ssh keys

First, your mac needs to have a default key by which it can be identified when ssh'ing to general services.

Run the following command:

ssh-keygen -f ~/.ssh/default-$(date "+%Y%m%d")-${USER}-$(hostname)

When prompted to enter and re-enter a passphrase, press enter to leave empty.

The command creates your default identity with its public and private keys. The whole interaction will look similar to the following:

> ssh-keygen -f ~/.ssh/default-$(date "+%Y%m%d")-${USER}-$(hostname)
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Created directory '/Users/codeturner/.ssh'.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /Users/codeturner/.ssh/default-20220101-codeturner-m1pro22
Your public key has been saved in /Users/codeturner/.ssh/default-20220101-codeturner-m1pro22.pub
The key fingerprint is:
SHA256:+8imEAhAJkJoO3jA2CsZEpQgld7MenKSegL2uDIlKEk blah-blah-blah
The key's randomart image is:
+---[RSA 3072]----+
|/Oo.             |
|%+o              |
|==.=             |
|+E+.+            |
|o+oo.   S        |
|*.* o.   .       |
|++o=.   .        |
|=... . ..o       |
|.=.   .oo .      |
+----[SHA256]-----+

This will create two files in a folder called .ssh in your home directory with the name you specified in the command line.

Now, let's wire it up to the system by editing the ~/.ssh/config:

UseKeychain yes
AddKeysToAgent yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/default-blah-blah-blah

I mean, duh, don't paste in "default-blah-blah-blah" -- it should be your actual file names.

Finally, add the new private key to your agent:

ssh-add ~/.ssh/default-blah-blah-blah

Github Key Access

Let's create another key for this device's access to github:

vared -p "github username: " -c _GHUSER
ssh-keygen -f ~/.ssh/github-$(date "+%Y%m%d")-${_GHUSER}-$(hostname)

Now, let's wire this new key up to the github.com host by editing the ~/.ssh/config and specifying the new key generated:

Host github.com
  HostName github.com
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/github-blah-blah-blah

As before, add the new private key to your agent:

ssh-add ~/.ssh/github-blah-blah-blah

Next, let's connect to github using your newly generated key.

Login to github.com and navigate to Profile > Settings > SSH and GPG keys. Click new key and paste the contents of your newly generated github public key and save. To quickly get it to your clipboard for pasting, do:

pbcopy < ~/.ssh/github-blah-blah-blah.pub

Once done, verify ssh access:

ssh -T [email protected]

Managing Multiple Github Accounts

If you're like me, you have two Github accounts: one for personal and one for work. How to use both accounts on the same computer automatically? `` Simply repeat the steps in the Github Key Access section above, but use an alias for the Host entry in the `~/.ssh/config` file.

For example, if I wanted to create a new key for a github account called batteryshoes, my config might now look like this:

Host github.com-batteryshoes
  HostName github.com
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/github-20220101-batteryshoes-mymac

Once done, verify ssh access:

ssh -T [email protected]

Then to use this new account in your git commands, simply use the host alias of github.com-batteryshoes to clone the repo.

iTerm2 setup

Import settings from repo by selecting Preferences > General > Preferences, then checking Load preferences from a custom folder or URL, and selecting the iterm2 folder in this repository.

Oh My Zsh

Install oh my zsh:

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

Then, install the theme plugin p10k:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-$HOME/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/themes/powerlevel10k

Edit .zshrc and set the theme:

ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k"

Also, uncomment the following line to put your home bin on the PATH:

export PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH

Launch a new terminal and it should auto-launch p10k configure where you can choose your style. Or, use my preferred configuration by copying .p10k.zsh into your home directory.

Edit or create .zprofile and add the following:

# nvm
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/nvm.sh" ] && source "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/nvm.sh"  # This loads nvm
[ -s "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/etc/bash_completion.d/nvm" ] && source "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/etc/bash_completion.d/nvm"  # This loads nvm bash_completion

Copy the all of the files in this repo's .oh-my-zsh/custom into $ZSH_CUSTOM.

Bash

This is optional. If you're full into zsh (and why wouldn't you be) then there's no need to do this section.

Copy all .bashrc* files into the home directory.

Create a .bash_profile file and add the following:

# Add Homebrew `/usr/local/bin` and User `~/bin` to the `$PATH`
export PATH=$HOME/bin:.:$PATH

# bash completion
[[ -r "/opt/homebrew/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh" ]] && source "/opt/homebrew/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh"

# git auto-complete
[[ -s /opt/homebrew/etc/bash_completion.d/git-completion.bash ]] && source /opt/homebrew/etc/bash_completion.d/git-completion.bash

# git prompt
[[ -s /opt/homebrew/etc/bash_completion.d/git-prompt.sh ]] && source /opt/homebrew/etc/bash_completion.d/git-prompt.sh

# ag auto-complete
[[ -s /opt/homebrew/etc/bash_completion.d/ag.bashcomp.sh ]] && source /opt/homebrew/etc/bash_completion.d/ag.bashcomp.sh

# nvm
export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/nvm.sh" ] && source "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/nvm.sh"  # This loads nvm
[ -s "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/etc/bash_completion.d/nvm" ] && source "/opt/homebrew/opt/nvm/etc/bash_completion.d/nvm"  # This loads nvm bash_completion

# Load the shell dotfiles
source ~/.bashrc

#THIS MUST BE AT THE END OF THE FILE FOR SDKMAN TO WORK!!!
export SDKMAN_DIR="~/.sdkman"
[[ -s "~/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh" ]] && source "~/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh"

sudo

Be sure you either are an admin to your machine or have an explicit entry in the sudoers file.

Git

Let's customize your git install.

Configure

Set your default git user:

git config --global user.name "Put Your Name Here"
git config --global user.email "put_your@email_here"

And set the default branch:

git config --global init.defaultBranch main

And tell git to automatically prune remote branches on calls fetch or pull:

git config --global remote.origin.prune true

Next, let's set vscode as our default merge/diff tool:

git config --global merge.tool vscode
git config --global mergetool.vscode.cmd 'code --wait $MERGED'
git config --global diff.tool vscode
git config --global diff.vscode.cmd 'code --wait --diff $LOCAL $REMOTE'

All these commands will be reflected to your ~/.gitconfig file.

Custom Commands

Git has a great plugin where if you have an executable script in your PATH that follows the naming scheme of git-mycommand, then you'll be able to run this custom script as the git command: git mycommand

Let's add a custom command to cleanup local branches interactively. Copy bin/git-cleanunmerged into the home directory. Note that we made sure the ~/bin is in the PATH env var above.

Then, cuz I'm lazy, I wrote an alias that maps git bclean to this script git cleanunmerged (see Custom Aliases).

Custom Aliases

Copy .gitconfig.aliases into your home directory. Then, reference this file in your config:

git config --global include.path ~/.gitconfig.aliases

Also, remember to make sure any existing [alias] sections out of the global config file at ~/.gitconfig.

Node

Let's download node and set our default version.

# install latest
nvm i node
# install lts
nvm i --lts
# set current and default to lts
nvm use default --lts

SDKMAN

SDKMAN! is a tool for managing parallel versions of multiple Software Development Kits. We'll use this to manage our JVMs. By default, it installs in your home directory, which is not ideal. Here, we'll install it at /opt/sdkman.

Note, this installer requires the destination folder to not exist as it will attempt to create it itself, so be sure you have access to create a folder in /opt.

export SDKMAN_DIR="/opt/sdkman" && curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash

Check out their documentation to find out what you can do with sdkman!

Installing sdkman will edit your .bash_profile and .zshrc scripts to place its installed SDKs into your PATH env.

Java

Amazon Corretto is a no-cost, multiplatform, production-ready distribution of the Open Java Development Kit (OpenJDK). Corretto comes with long-term support that will include performance enhancements and security fixes. Amazon runs Corretto internally on thousands of production services and Corretto is certified as compatible with the Java SE standard. With Corretto, you can develop and run Java applications on popular operating systems, including Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Note here is no need to set MAVEN_HOME or M2_HOME since sdkman will set it when your shell launches. You'll need to relaunch your shell to see this in action.

VS Code

Settings Sync

Settings sync is now embedded in vscode .. hooray!

To start, open vscode then select Settings > Backup and Sync Settings from the menu and sign in with your GitHub or Microsoft account. After making this selection, the browser will open so that you can sign in to your Microsoft or GitHub account. When a Microsoft account is chosen, you can use either personal accounts, such as Outlook accounts, or Azure accounts, and you can also link a GitHub account to a new or existing Microsoft account.

After signing in, Settings Sync will be turned on and continue to synchronize your preferences automatically in the background.

If you've done this previously, now you can just sit back and wait for your vscode to update to your saved settings.

Note - it may ask you to restart. Once it launches again, double check from the menu that it says something like Settings > Settings Sync is On.

Hammerspoon

We installed it. Let's use if for some mac automation.

Either refer to the .hammerspoon files from this repo or just copy them over, then modify the init.lua file to fit your preferences.

If you find yourself editing lua in vs code, you'll want to use the installed vscode-lua-format to auto format the code. But I disagree with the line limit, so customize it by copying .lua from this repo to your home directory and then update vscode settings vscode-lua-format.configPath to point to the full path of the .lua/vscode-lua-format you moved.

Docker + Colima

Colima is an alternative to Docker Desktop that's solely available as a command-line utility. Under the hood Colima uses the Lima-VM. Lima launches Linux virtual machines with automatic file sharing and port forwarding (similar to WSL2), and containerd.

To install, you'll need both the docker client and the colima server:

brew install docker colima

Start colima:

colima start

Then, check docker:

> docker ps
CONTAINER ID   IMAGE     COMMAND   CREATED   STATUS    PORTS     NAMES
