Install our currently used version of ruby, node, and any dependencies for the Voom web app or iOS app.Installs custom scripts you want opt-in to, designer tools, docker tools, golang dev tools.
Makes macOS “awesome” - faster key repeat rates, hide / show dock, pins Chrome and iTerm to the dock, customizes the clock in the menu bar.Installs bash_it, a popular shell, and customizes the prompt to assist in git pairing tools.Installs useful applications for development - ShiftIt, Ke圜astr, Dash, Fl圜ut, Postman, MacDown, Slack.
#Macdown install shell code#
Installs popular text editors, code environments, and data stores - Sublime Text, rbenv, ruby 2.5.1, bundler, postgresql, redis.I’ll give you a bit of background as to what we at Voom like, and what we’ve changed. Some of these things I don’t agree with, but most are useful, and in an environment as flexible as your workspace, it’s good to have a bit of structure.
#Macdown install shell how to#
The tool is fairly opinionated about the environment and gives the user recommendations on how to do things and what the standard setup should be.
#Macdown install shell update#
Want to tweak your shell prompt? A simple change to a single file will customize and update the next time you open a shell. Want to enable another bash_it plugin, alias, or completion? Simple! Want to install a new plugin in Sublime Text? Add it to the version-controlled json preferences file! Want to install the newest version of Slack? Add it to the list of applications we install! Want to add an alias? Add it to our common alias file that gets copied over every run! The workstation-setup tool is a series of bash scripts that allow a team to manage their workstations in a single git repository, using a language that is familiar to veterans, easy to learn for newcomers, and quick to troubleshoot. Having a tool that everybody knows how to use, troubleshoot, customize, and extend is important to iterating on our team’s workstation. Each workstation is identical to reduce surprises and inefficiencies, and to allow engineers to share fixes to common pitfalls when they encounter them. Alongside the web app, we are developing a native iOS app in react-native. This makes having a comfortable and familiar and nearly identical setup a requirement for a productive team.Īt Voom, we have a fairly standard Ruby on Rails development set up on macOS. No one engineering workstation is owned solely by one engineer at the office. The importance of a shared workstation comes from pairing every day and rotating machines often. When you have complete control over your workstation tooling, you no longer feel limited to using “someone else’s machine” – you are now contributing to the team’s workstation. By allowing any engineer on the team to make changes to that baseline, we empower our team to contribute improvements, which allows us to ship code faster. Having a standardized workstation on our pairing machines allows us to set a baseline for the tooling at Voom. This blog post was originally posted on the Voom Flights blog, here.
