mac-linux-setup

A collection of shell scripts to automate development environment setup on macOS and Ubuntu (ARM).

Usage

macOS:

cd mac

chmod +x initial-setup.sh
./initial-setup.sh

chmod +x vscode-setup.sh
./vscode-setup.sh

cp zshrc-template.sh ~/.zshrc

Ubuntu (ARM):

The Ubuntu dev script is ARM only and does not support AMD.

cd linux-dev

chmod +x os-setup.sh
./os-setup.sh

cp zshrc-template.sh ~/.zshrc

# Apply the Terminator theme, font, and keybindings
chmod +x setup-terminator.sh
./setup-terminator.sh

# Install Claude Code plugins (run after Claude Code is authenticated)
chmod +x setup-claude-plugins.sh
./setup-claude-plugins.sh

# once you connect VSCode in the local machine to the VM via SSH, run setup-vscode-server.sh
chmod +x setup-vscode-server.sh
./setup-vscode-server.sh

Ollama server (optional, AMD64 or ARM64):

A standalone box that serves the Ollama API on the LAN. Keep it on a trusted network only — the API port has no authentication.

cd linux-ollama

chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

Development Pattern

• Connect to the development server via SSH and do the development there: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh
• Repositories will live in the VM and the repository manager.
• Podman will be used to run and build the code.
• Why: This way the main host is minimal and reduces the blast radius of potential supply chain attacks
