## What it is
A continuously updated Chinese-language guide (with an English version) for setting up an efficient macOS development environment, covering system settings, automation, and tool recommendations. It is a curated document rather than software, maintained since 2015 and refreshed for recent macOS versions.

## Use cases
- set up a new mac for development
- configure macos for programming productivity
- find recommended mac developer tools
- automate mac app installation with homebrew
- standardize dev environment across a team
- learn mac keyboard and trackpad settings for developers

## When to choose
- you are configuring a new or freshly wiped MacBook for software development
- you want opinionated, regularly updated macOS setup advice
- you want to standardize shortcuts and tools across a team

## When to avoid
- you need runnable scripts or an automated setup tool rather than a written guide
- you use Linux or Windows instead of macOS
- you need official documentation rather than personal recommendations

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, configuration-management, cli
- domain: developer-tools, apple-ecosystem
- platform: -
- tags: mac-setup, guide, homebrew, workflow, documentation, command-line, macos
