These scripts and dotfiles configure a Mac or Linux system for software development.

So I can set up my development environment automatically, not manually.

• I'm a web developer who mostly writes JavaScript & Python.
• I prefer Linux and Mac development environments.

Run the setup script to prepare a new computer for development:

git clone https://github.com/smenjas/essentials.git
cd essentials/
./setup

The setup script will run create-symlinks to link your dotfiles and ~/bin directory. Doing so creates a symlink called this in the repository root, pointing to the appropriate directory for your operating system. This way you can have different implementations on different systems.

If you don't already have a ~/.gitconfig, the setup script will copy the example (this/dotfiles/gitconfig) and open a text editor. Tell git your name and email address.
