- 📦 Install Brew Packages
- 🍺 Install Brew Casks
- 📝 Install Fonts
- 📌 Install VS Code Extensions
- 🔧 Apply VS Code Settings
- 🚧 Apply zsh aliases
For all of the steps performed above, excluding applying VS Code settings and zsh aliases, an array of items are looped over and installed with a single command.
Simply modify the array for any of the tasks to adjust what is installed.
The following chart breaks down what identifiers are used:
| Task | Array | Identifier |
|---|---|---|
| Brew Packages | PACKAGES |
Package names listed in the official Brew packages |
| Brew Casks | CASKS |
Cask names listed in the official Brew casks |
| Fonts | FONTS |
Files listed in the font cask without the .rb extension |
| VS Code Extensions | EXTENSIONS |
Extension <author>.<name> (can find installed with `code --list-extensions) |
The VS Code settings and zsh aliases can be customized by modifying the vscode_settings.json and .zshrc files respectively. That file is simply copied over as part of the setup!
