These instructions partly automates the setup of a device using macOS with an Apple Silicon ship.

Setup your Mac

Update macOS to the latest version (System Preferences / Software Update).
Install Xcode from the App Store and open it.
Install macOS Command Line Tools by running xcode-select --install in Terminal.
Install Rosetta by running sudo softwareupdate --install-rosetta.
Copy your public and private SSH keys to ~/.ssh and make sure their permissions are set to 600.
Add your SSH private keys to the authentication agent by running ssh-add ~/.ssh/private_key_name.
Clone this repository to ~/.dotfiles.
Append /usr/local/bin/zsh to the end of your /etc/shells file. ⚠️ seems not needed, to be confirmed
Enter the .dotfiles directory and run chmod +x install.sh (check if still necessary after #583a9a5).
Run ./install.sh to start the installation.
Restore preferences by running mackup restore (make sure your storage provider is connected).
Restart your computer to finalize the process.

In Xcode:

go to menu Window, Devices and Simulators, Simulators to add additional iOS versions down to iOS 14.0.1.
go to menu Xcode, Settings, Platforms to add additional devices.

(optional) Security: set a root password by running sudo mysql_secure_installation.
Databases migration: by running mysql -u root -p < alldb.sql, you can import all local databases you have exported with mysqldump -u root -p --all-databases > alldb.sql.
Favorites and passwords migration or migration from Sequel Pro to Sequel Ace: follow the dedicated guide.
If you need access to remote servers, grant Sequel Ace the access to your ~/.ssh/config, ~/.ssh/known_hosts and the needed SSH keys.

As stated in Moom FAQ, /Library/Preferences/com.manytricks.Moom.plist: “Macs may have differing numbers of displays, different resolutions, etc. Saved layouts for one won't make sense for another.”

In Sublime Text, go to Tools, Install Package Control. Then, [to be completed].
