Installation script to deploy standard software on Macs

Project mention: Which policies, profiles, scripts, apps and packages do you consider must-have? | reddit.com/r/jamf | 2023-03-13

If you want to make things easy for your users and yourself, take a look at Installomator. It'll unlock a lot of nice workflows for your users, since you could put a specific title's install action available in Self Service and thats always gonna be easier than trying to track down the vendor's URL and finding the right download. It also means you don't have to repackage anything.

S.U.P.E.R.M.A.N. optimizes the macOS software update experience.

Project mention: Anyone got much experience with the Nudge app? | reddit.com/r/macsysadmin | 2023-03-21

This doesn't exactly help you, but I tried Nudge and just wasn't a huge fan of it. Imo, SUPER is a better option and is capable of silently installing updates itself. Worth a look - https://github.com/Macjutsu/super

Look at the reissue_filevault_recovey_key.sh in the jss-filevault-reissue repo. Requires user interaction, but it explains to the user what is happening and then asks them for their password. You can add your companies branding to it.
