Setup

1. Run software update

Make sure everything is up to date.

2. Install Xcode and/or "Command Line Tools"

"Command Line Tools" can be downloaded separate from Xcode at https://developer.apple.com/downloads/ - It is way smaller than installing the whole Xcode but might not work for all cases tho. dr Xcode can be found on App Store. preferred

More info on how to download Command Line Tools inside XCode can be found on StackOverflow

3. Install homebrew and CLI tools

http://brew.sh/

# install homebrew
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
