## What it is
An automated macOS setup script that applies system defaults, preferences, and installs recommended developer tools and applications. It works on brand-new machines as well as long-used ones, configuring the shell, iTerm2, Finder, Dock, and more.

## Use cases
- set up a new mac laptop automatically
- automate macos developer machine configuration
- install dev tools and apps on a fresh macbook
- apply better macos system defaults with one script
- restore my dotfiles and shell preferences on a new machine
- configure zsh and iterm2 for development
- onboard a new team member's mac quickly

## When to choose
- you want a one-command, opinionated setup for a macOS developer machine
- you're setting up a brand-new Mac from the factory
- you want curated defaults for zsh, iTerm2, Finder, and Dock plus auto-installed dev tools

## When to avoid
- you're on Linux or Windows
- you want fully manual, granular control over every preference change
- you dislike opinionated defaults and pre-installed apps being applied to your machine
