For any other suggestions, please understand if I don't include everything. The document assumes you are new to Mac, but can also be useful if you are reinstalling a system and need some reminder. You may not need all of them for your projects, although I recommend having them set up as they always come in handy. We will set up popular programming languages (for example Node (JavaScript), Python, and Ruby). This document describes how I set up my developer environment on a new MacBook or iMac.
