Mac developer must-haves

MacOS development environment

Using Erik Reagan's original gist as a base -- which doesn't seem to have been updated recently, hence my fork, I will maintain here an alternate version for programmers, who, like me:

  • Prefer CLI over UX, and the keyboard over the mouse
  • Spend most of their time in terminal environments
  • Primarily work in UNIX environments (AIX, macOS/BSD, Linux, ...)
  • Develop both back-end and front-end applications and software
  • Work in multiple language environments (C/C++, Perl, PHP, Javascript (full-stack), ...)
  • Prefer consolidating all build processes with one tool (i.e. GNU Make) rather than a cohort of language specific imitators (Ant, Grunt, ...)

Terminal emulation

Software Technology Notes
iTerm2 Objective-C Long time standard. Stable. Efficient.
Hyper.is JavaScript New kid on the block. The future?
