Cask
I did a clean installation of my laptop this weekend, rather than go through the list of apps I had installed and do a manual installation of each one using the “Download and drag” method I decided to use Cask. Cask is a Homebrew package which automates to the download and install part. Here is pretty much my entire installation process ….
ruby -e “$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"brew doctorbrew install caskroom/cask/brew-caskbrew cask install google-chromebrew cask install dropboxbrew cask install google-drivebrew cask install sublime-textbrew cask install githubbrew cask install spotifybrew cask install libreofficebrew cask install virtualboxbrew cask install skype
The only downside is that it installs the packages into the users Application directory which set my OCD off, it was quickly remedied though by simply moving the link once I had installed everything I needed.
