Applications - GUI and DevTools

With your machine in the starting state, we can start downloading the initial GUI and DevTools applications after the basic configuration.

Here we will separate into three categories, AppStore, GUI Applications, and DevTools.

AppStore

First you need to setup your apple account to be able to use the AppStore, then you will need to download some applications.

After installing the Xcode, you need to open it for the first time accept some licenses to use it fully.

  • Install xCode Terminal Tools 
xcode-select --install
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Accept xCode License 
sudo xcodebuild -license accept
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Applications (GUI & DevTools)

First we need to disable Gatekeeper in order to use non-Apple signed applications.

sudo spctl --master-disable
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  • Homebrew 
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Now we need to update everything in Homebrew, after the first installation.

brew update
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Here the list is divided into categories so you can know what kind of application you are installing.

brew install --cask \
