Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan

Custom recipe to get OS X 10.11 El Capitan running from scratch, setup applications and developer environment.

I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install.

You are encouraged to fork this and modify it to your heart's content to match your own needs.

Install Software

Install from App Store

• Battery Monitor
• Degrees
• Disk Diag
• LastPass
• Memory Monitor
• Numbers
• Pages
• Pushbullet
• Xcode

Install from Third-Party Websites

• Firefox Developer Edition
• Sublime Text 3

Fonts

• M+ 1m
• Powerline fonts

Homebrew

Install Xcode Command Line Tools

• xcode-select --install or
• Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > Command Line Tools

Run Xcode and accept the license

Homebrew can not install properly until this occurs.

Install Homebrew

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

At the time of this writing, brew doctor says that Xcode 6.1 is required, which means downloading it from the Apple Developer Center until it is released in the Mac App Store.

Install Homebrew extension Cask

brew install caskroom/cask/brew-cask

Install applications via Homebrew

./install-via-brew.sh

Install applications via Homebrew Cask

./install-via-brew-cask.sh

Vagrant

Install plugins

vagrant plugin install vagrant-vmware-fusion
vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater

Shell

Make zsh the default shell

chsh -s $(which zsh)

Install oh-my-zsh

sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh)"

Set up dotfiles

cd ~/SpiderOak\ Hive/dotfiles/
stow -t ~ PACKAGE_NAME

Version control

Git and Mercurial

cd ~/SpiderOak\ Hive/dotfiles/
stow -t ~ git
stow -t ~ hg

Subversion

ln -s ~/SpiderOak\ Hive/dotfiles/.subversion

Sublime Text

Add Sublime Text CLI

mkdir -p ~/bin && ln -s "/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl" ~/bin/subl

Install Package Control

Run Sublime Text 3 and access the console via the CTRL + ``` shortcut or the View > Show Console` menu.

import urllib.request,os,hashlib; h = '7183a2d3e96f11eeadd761d777e62404' + 'e330c659d4bb41d3bdf022e94cab3cd0'; pf = 'Package Control.sublime-package'; ipp = sublime.installed_packages_path(); urllib.request.install_opener( urllib.request.build_opener( urllib.request.ProxyHandler()) ); by = urllib.request.urlopen( 'http://sublime.wbond.net/' + pf.replace(' ', '%20')).read(); dh = hashlib.sha256(by).hexdigest(); print('Error validating download (got %s instead of %s), please try manual install' % (dh, h)) if dh != h else open(os.path.join( ipp, pf), 'wb' ).write(by)

See https://sublime.wbond.net/installation for more information. Their site has a note that this install code will change for each new release, so it would be good to check once in a while.
