plug.nvim - an extensible plugin manager wrap on top of vim-plug in pure lua
This is my plugin management framework that I refactored into its own dedicated plugin. The main reason for its existence is to remove a big chunk of my configurations out of my dotfiles (refactor(nvim): migrate plugins to plug.nvim) so it could focusing on configure the plugins instead of managing it.

Show HN: We open sourced our new Mac developer setup script
I did the same with my dotfiles setup, but it's for my personal preferences.
Moreover, I think I have more options to skip particular part / packages while also try to be idempotent as much as it can.

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 It's since been superseded by Homebrew which I find is a far better experience.
