Adapted from my friend's repo: https://github.com/rpellerin/dotfiles

See: https://brew.sh/

brew install --cask iterm2 \

Setup zsh with Prezto

See instructions in https://github.com/sorin-ionescu/prezto

Note: zsh is now set as default terminal on macOS (see here). Hence, the step chsh -s /bin/zsh is not necessary on recent versions of macOS.

Vim setup

See: https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug#installation

Note: The Plug Vim installation is configured automatically in the .vimrc file as done in https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug/wiki/tips#automatic-installation

Git setup

1. Generate a SSH Key and add it to Github (see: https://help.github.com/articles/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account/)

2. Generate a GPG key and add it to Github (see: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-a-new-gpg-key/), and set all parameters to the max secure values + set the key to expire ! It is good to renew the key pair once in a while.

   • See: http://irtfweb.ifa.hawaii.edu/~lockhart/gpg/
   • Use keybase for GPG management and operations

3. Make sure to update the signingkey field in the .gitconfig file, with the ID of the new key.
