Good times create weak men
Almost every setting can be automated via `defaults write`, so there's barely never a need to even look at the system preferences/settings UI. [1] lists many of them.

What are your New Build essentials?
I have a script that installs Homebrew and App Store CLI. Then it automatically installs most of the apps I need. I use homebrew to create an up to date list for this script.

How to easily migrate Homebrew formulas to another MacBook?
I mainly use the Homebrew to manage almost every app or program, even apps on the App Store using mas. It becomes a bit of a pain when I set up a new MacBook because it takes time for me to look for the list of the apps and programs on my main MacBook and install one them by one on my new MacBook.

Questions about MacOS
Most of my workflow could replicated under Mac. For the "horrible" window management I use amethyst (auto tiling) and Magnet (windows like) for search I use raycast and for software management I do use the cli with homebrew, mas and ports. The cool thing with homebrew cask you can install all programms from the web that aren't in the App Store and the App Store apps will be updated via mas. You can even update your mac with the terminal so everything like in linux.

Similar to for Veeam for Apple OS X?
Instead, perhaps consider file based backups, and reloading apps. For example, you can have a shell script that can fetch Homebrew, from there, fetch most non-App Store apps with brew install commands, and for App Store apps, use mas for those.
