Scripts to configure a new install of macOS, in the particular way I want. Intentionally extremely opinionated.

• Set many settings that seem to only work in the GUI (boo!)
• Set many other settings where Apple actually respects their own defaults write tool (yay!)
• Removes excess Dock items
• Installs homebrew
• Installs dotfiles
• Installs global brewfile

Get this repo the hard way. Because Xcode and homebrew aren't installed yet we don't have git or wget.

cd /tmp
curl -OL https://github.com/rrotter/macos-setup/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
unzip main.zip
cd macos-setup-main

Run every script in the top level in order

./00<tab>
