Description
Omakos turns your macOS laptop into a fully functional development machine in a single command. It is a shell script designed to set up a new macOS environment, inspired by Basecamp's Omakub project. The name 'Omakos' is a combination of 'omakase' (Japanese for 'I leave it up to you') and 'macOS', reflecting its purpose of providing a curated development environment setup for macOS. Omakos can be run multiple times on the same machine safely, installing upgrades or skipping packages based on what is already installed.
