Crunch Bang 11 Post Post Install Script

Crunchbang Comes with its own script to update && upgrade, install Libre, printers, etc. This is what I usually run after that. Right now, don’t expect this to work at all. In the future I hope to get everything automated from stock to work ready. Installing dependencies and the various programs I like is easy. Node and Ruby is another story but right now c/p the commands manually is good enough.

I believe this is also what I use on Ubuntu 14.04 but I don’t remember if this is what I did on my desktop.

# bower, grunt, yo, bootstrap
$ npm install -g yo
$ mkdir dev
$ cd dev
$ bower install bootstrap

Ruby

I have the least confidence in this part. I used to use RVM. On a whim I tried out rbenv. Now, I aint some fancy pants rubydev that needs to manage multiple Ruby environments but I’ve found that manually initiating ruby locally within the project’s directory to be a more elegant method.

I had some issues with getting terminator to play nice with both NPM and Ruby. I think what I have below works, but I’m not entirely sure. Your mileage may vary.
