2. Setup ssh for GitHub

2.1. Create ssh key

mkdir ~/.ssh && cd $_
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]" -f "github-agoodshort"

if [[ $OSTYPE == 'darwin'* ]]; then
 pbcopy <~/.ssh/github-agoodshort.pub # copy public key to clipboard
else
 wl-copy <~/.ssh/github-agoodshort.pub # https://neovim.io/doc/user/provider.html#provider-clipboard
fi

2.2. Associate the key with GitHub

Add the copied key in your GitHub Profile SSH keys.

2.3. Add the GitHub SSH key to known_host

curl --silent https://api.github.com/meta |
 jq --raw-output '"github.com "+.ssh_keys[]' >>~/.ssh/known_hosts

3. Getting started with chezmoi

Install Visual Studio Code before installing chezmoi as brew will fail to install Visual Studio Code extensions during the first run.

if [[ ! -x "$(command -v code)" ]]; then

 if [[ $OSTYPE == 'darwin'* ]]; then
  brew install --cask visual-studio-code
 else
  sudo yay -S visual-studio-code-bin --noconfirm
 fi
fi

brew install chezmoi
chezmoi init --apply agoodshort

4. Install node through fnm

fnm install lts/iron
fnm use lts/iron
