Set up an OSX machine from zero to awesome. Uses Homebrew (and cask, fonts, etc). Focused on Ruby/Rails development, includes rvm, xquartz, editor fonts, sublime text, and many tools.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Generic macOS workstation setup
#
# A pragmatic, public bootstrap for developer / technical-productivity Macs.
# It installs Homebrew, common CLI utilities, runtimes, terminal/editor/agentic
# coding apps, viewers, media tools, and a curated font set.
#
# Philosophy:
# - Open-source / cross-platform first.
# - Commercial apps only when explicitly useful/common for this workflow.
