I’m relatively new on macOS and one of the biggest problems switching from Windows was set up all those SDK and libraries required for web/mobile d...

I didn't read everything but a quick note about your Node and Yarn setup! I would strongly recommend using nvm for managing Node versions and not installing Node through Brew. It allows you fine grained control over what Node you want to use, don't have to just use one version on your whole system!
Once you've got that, you'll also want to install Yarn without Node so that it's independent of the version of Node which is handled by nvm.
I've found it's a far more pleasant experience working this way, being able to easily change versions as needed!
Now I moved to NVM :D
Excellent, I have no idea about nvm. I'n my case I'm only need LTS version but it's cool to other know that. Thanks!
Hello Camilo, what a coincidence that I read some of this article yesterday! I just got a new Macbook and looked through around 10 articles to make sure I set up my $PATH and nvm correctly. I'm confused why tutorials advise having
.sshand.bashrcunder$HOMEwhilst stuff that's installed through brew actually goes intoMacintoshHD/usr/local/....?Really, I have no idea. I never seen something about it before.
Do you have some of this links? I can take a look and try to understand.
You might consider giving this repo a look:
github.com/Pivotal/workstation-setup
With a couple of tweaks (you can fork the repo to your own GitHub and make them there) you can cover most everything a modern developer might encounter.
Disclaimer: I work at Pivotal and use this setup project to pave our workstations on a regular basis between client engagements.
Looks nice. I'm thinking do it similar with a console in .Net Core

Fyi: apparently Spectacle isn't actively being developed anymore.
They've recommended users switch to Rectangle instead.
(Haven't tried it personally though)
brew cask install rectangleToday I moved to rectangleapp and it's awesome: have keyboard shortcuts (like spectacle) but also magnetic windows like winOS.
Post updated with Rectangle information.
Thanks for the advice @bxe5056 !
Thanks! I'll take a look next week.

I don't think you really need to do all this. Macs aren't far off being usable machines in the first place.
I'd do
homebrewand a better terminal and (if my development stack was that way) installdockerand/orvagrant. The rest of it's all very specific to a particular development stack.On a more serious note, I would not do this:
simply because there's no reason to and you're messing things up for anyone else who wants to use the same system. I know, I know, Macs are usually one-person machines, but they run unix and are theoretically multi-user. Why try to break it?
Yes this kind of thing are very opinionated. I work with non particular Stack: c#, .Net Core, Web and Mobile. Hope can be used as guide. You give me a good idea, organizing it as stacks.
About
/usr/local/binyou are completely right I'll add a Warning about. Just use in case you machine is used by only one user.Thanks!
Very Nice overview. But let's not forget dart cli and eco system:
dart.dev/get-dart
Great! Almost everything looks familiar, but have learned something new.
Found typo: Filezilla gist repeats below Keka (File Compression).
Thanks! Fixed.
I never heard about meta key. I'll search about it.
Using docker for development will be good instead of installing all this stuff
Yeeess, that say me a partner. Maybe you know a link that to the same with Docker? I want to learn.
Those quick access sound nice... great tip.
Sometimes fix something in terminal is slowly, moving only with arrow keys.
Thanks!
