Ask HN: What's your toolchain for bootstrapping a new local environment?
When you start in a new local environment (eg new Linux desktop, Windows desktop, MacBook, etc) how do you efficiently make it "home" to you? For example, dotfiles, ssh keys, file sync such as Dropbox, terminal and preferences, etc.

- muzani 7y agoI install Firefox and Sublime Text, and do everything later. I'm currently joining a new company and have to redo everything, but this is probably the most consistent thing. New environments are good situations to reevaluate everything I've been doing so far.
