Show HN: We open sourced our new Mac developer setup script
Boxen (https://github.com/boxen/puppet-boxen) used Puppet to achieve this. It worked, but it was quite opinionated and of course you needed to know Puppet so the learning curve was steep. It's since been superseded by Homebrew which I find is a far better experience.

Show HN: We open sourced our new Mac developer setup script
Ha, I also have something similar[1], but I use a mix of profiles and flavors. I have two profiles: pkg for installing packages and user for configuring user profiles. Profiles are then broken down further with flavors: dev for development packages, desktop for desktop packages and configurations, and so on.
I found it highly amusing that we're taking similar approaches for a lot of things: a wrapper function for sudo and fetch, and OS detection (especially the appending WSL suffix part). Mine is not as idempotent as yours, and having a per-package definition is still in my TODO list, though.
