Configure GitHub

Authenticate with Github: gh auth login

Configure iTerm

Grab profile JSON and import that.

gh gist clone aa77dce9a762e8a07dbd6ae86f94631d

The fish path needs to be /usr/local/bin/fish on Intel and /opt/homebrew/bin/fish on ARM.

Download Monokai Remastered terminal colors and import at Profiles -> Colors,

In iTerm2 preferences, set Profiles > General > Command > Custom Shell /opt/homebrew/bin/fish

(The new Fish profile probably won't work right until Fish is actually configured, so don't set it as default until then.)

Configure Fish

Ensure everything installed via Homebrew works: fish_add_path /opt/homebrew/bin

Get Kubernetes autocompletion, with fisher install evanlucas/fish-kubectl-completions

Elixir

Don't forget to install hex: mix local.hex

Git

Set up a ~/.gitconfig

[user]
	name = my name
	email = me@example.com
[init]
	defaultBranch = main
[rerere]
	enabled = true
[alias]
	pu = !git push origin `git branch --show-current`
	rename = branch -m
	uncommit = reset --soft HEAD^
	br = checkout -b
	tree = log --graph --decorate --all --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit --date=relative
[filter "lfs"]
	clean = git-lfs clean -- %f
	smudge = git-lfs smudge -- %f
	process = git-lfs filter-process
	required = true

Set up an SSH key: ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "me@example.com" and add it to GitHub

Mobile Dev

Install a Python using asdf. Check with coworkers on locally-preferred version (if working in a Python shop) and make it default:

asdf plugin add python
asdf install python 3.6.6
cat "python 3.6.6" >> ~/.tool-versions

Install IDB:

brew tap facebook/fb
idb-companion
pip3 install fb-idb
asdf reshim python

Install Flipper: https://fbflipper.com/

In the Flipper preferences, set:

  • Android SDK: Users/<me>/Library/Android/sdk
  • IDB location: /Users/<me>/.asdf/shims/idb

If Flipper shows errors about a FileNotFound, then tweak the ~/.asdf/installs/python/3.6.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/idb/client/grpc.py file. Find where it has the CompanionSpawner and change the companion_path to /usr/local/Celler/idb-companion/<version>/bin/idb_companion
