onboard

Welcome to my personal onboarding repository! This repo is my toolkit for setting up a new development environment on any PC. Whenever I get a new machine, I just clone this repo to bring in all the things that make my workflow comfortable and productive.

What I keep here

• Wallpapers I like
• Apps and scripts to automate setup and configuration
• Terminal and app themes
• Bookmarks for browsers
• Handy code snippets
• Any other files or resources I want quick access to

Why I made this

Setting up a new computer can be tedious. With this repo, I can skip the repetitive steps and get straight to work. Everything I need is in one place, ready to go.

How I use it

macOS/Linux (zsh/bash)

1. Open a terminal running zsh or bash.
2. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/getcubed/onboard.git

3. Run the main setup script to automate onboarding:

   ./onboard-setup.sh

   • By default, this runs all setup scripts (apps, themes, wallpapers).
   • You can also run ./onboard-setup.sh select to choose which scripts to run interactively.

Windows (PowerShell)

1. Open PowerShell (preferably as Administrator for app installations).

2. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/getcubed/onboard.git

3. Run the main setup script to automate onboarding:

   .\onboard-setup.ps1

   • By default, this runs all setup scripts (apps, themes, wallpapers).
   • You can also run .\onboard-setup.ps1 select to choose which scripts to run interactively.

4. Add new files or update existing ones as my preferences change.

Folder structure

• apps/ – My setup and automation scripts (e.g., Homebrew apps on macOS, Winget/Chocolatey on Windows)
• themes/ – Terminal and app themes, plus install scripts
• wallpapers/ – My favorite backgrounds and wallpaper scripts
• bookmarks/ – Browser bookmarks
• snippets/ – Code snippets and utilities
• onboard-setup.sh – Main script to run all setup scripts (macOS/Linux)
• onboard-setup.ps1 – Main script to run all setup scripts (Windows)
• README.md – This file

I update and reorganize these folders as needed.
