# Ovid 💻

### Notes

11/23/21 - I wrote a quick post about why I purchased it and why I named it Ovid @ [https://davidawindham.com/ovid](https://davidawindham.com/ovid) and I'll document the rest of the it here. Picked him up from the Apple Store. Moved my old laptop so that I could share the screen for referencing configuration. Booted her up and loaded up activity monitor and command line top to watch the processes. I always avoid using the migration assistant so that I can start clean. My main goal is to keep the machine as minimal and simple as possible. I am going to try and avoid running any x86 processes under Rosetta in my attempt to go fully ARM [https://davidawindham.com/arm/](https://davidawindham.com/arm/).

### MacOS

Arrange software based on usage and function

* Pages, Notes, Reminders
* Numbers, Keynote
* Calendar, Contacts, Mail, Facetime, Messages  
* Photos, QuickTime, Preview
* Activity Monitor, Disk Utility, Console, Color Meter

### Finder

* Change sidebar order and add my default work folders ( Projects / Sites )
* Add [QLMarkdown](https://github.com/sbarex/QLMarkdown) and [Syntax Highlight](https://github.com/sbarex/SourceCodeSyntaxHighlight) Extensions ( as HomeBrew Casks )

```bash
david@ovid:~ » brew install --cask qlmarkdown
david@ovid:~ » brew install --cask syntax-highlight
```

### Xcode

Install command line developer tools. Xcode still requires Rosetta to run some builds and since I don't regularly do Swift development, I can let the app sit without installing Rosetta  

```bash
david@ovid:~ » xcode-select –install
```

**Git** - set --global .gitignore/.gitconfig - version included with Xcode  

```bash
david@ovid:~/sites/dotfiles(master○) » git version
git version 2.30.1 (Apple Git-130)
```

### Terminal

SSH Keys - move existing keys, generate fresh keys  
GPG Keys  - move existing, generate fresh, validate [Github](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/telling-git-about-your-signing-key)  
Git Auth/Keys - keychain  
Vim & Vundle - plugins ( NERDTree, NERDTree-Git, Fugative ) colors ( sunburst, vividchalk, solarized )  

```bash
david@ovid:~ » git clone https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
```

**dotfiles** @ [https://code.davidawindham.com/david/dotfiles](https://code.davidawindham.com/david/dotfiles)  

Oh My Zsh - ( aliases, plugins, theme )
macos, git, gulp, grunt, brew, yarn, textmate, vscode, history-substring-search, zsh-autosuggestions, zsh-syntax-highlighting

```bash
david@ovid:~ » sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh)"
david@ovid:~ » git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting.git ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-syntax-highlighting
david@ovid:~ » git clone https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-autosuggestions ${ZSH_CUSTOM:-~/.oh-my-zsh/custom}/plugins/zsh-autosuggestions
```

#### New Features

david@ovid:~ » networkQuality ( network tests )
david@ovid:~ » aea ( Manipulate Apple Encrypted Archives )
```

### Languages

Apple is removing languages from the OS via [Xcode 11 release notes](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-11-release-notes): "Scripting language runtimes such as Python, Ruby, and Perl are included in macOS for compatibility with legacy software. In future versions of macOS, scripting language runtimes won't be available by default, and may require you to install an additional package." Instead of adding four or five versions of each language to support legacy codebase, I'm going to bring modify the old projects.  
  
**PHP** - 8.1.0  
**Python** - 3.9.9  
**Ruby** - 3.0.3 ( switched from using rvm to rbenv )  

```bash
david@ovid:~ » brew install rbenv ruby-build
david@ovid:~ » echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
david@ovid:~ » echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.zshrc
david@ovid:~ » rbenv install 3.0.3 
david@ovid:~ » ruby -v

david@ovid:~ » ruby -v
ruby 3.0.3p157 (2021-11-24 revision 3fb7d2cadc) [arm64-darwin21]
```

**Rust** - 1.56.1 (still haven't learned Rust 🛠 )

david@ovid:~ » rustc --version
rustc 1.56.1
david@ovid:~ » go version
