Here’s how I get productive for JavaScript/Node on Mac OS.
It includes iTerm2, zsh, Node, Visual Studio Code and some git commands.
Table of Contents
Setup iTerm2

- Install iTerm2
Change edit mode to natural text

- iTerm Preferences → Profiles → select your profile → Keys tab → Load Preset… → Natural Text Editing (See this StackOverflow answer)
New session should start where previous left off
- iTerm Preferences → Profiles → select your profile → General tab → Working Directory section → Reuse previous session’s directory option
Quit on tab close
- iTerm Preferences → General, “Closing” → “Quit when all windows are closed”
Increase font size
- iTerm Preferences → Profiles → select your profile → Text tab → Font section → Change font → Update font in the popup
- Fan of 16pt Monaco (12, 14 is just too small)
Enable infinite history
- iTerm Preferences → Profiles → select your profile → Terminal tab → Unlimited scrollback
Shell setup
zsh
With oh-my-zsh manager. Sets you up with auto-completion.
snazzy colour theme
Using iterm-snazzy, which is a case of downloading the .itermcolors file and choosing the theme from (iTerm Preferences → Profile > Colors > Color Presets…).
Pure prompt
It’s simple, clean but gives you enough information to be productive.

(see Setup and configuration for how to get Node/npm up and running)
- Install using npm:
npm install --global pure-prompt - Initialise by adding the following to your
.zshrc:
As a developer it’s always good to have a few browsers and tools handy:
- Google Chrome: still a goto due to its solid and extensive dev tools. Usually I install the React or Vue dev tools.
- Postman for Mac: to manually test APIs
- Firefox: number 2 browser
- Brave: auto-blocks ads and tracking, sort of the “play” browser, its dev tools are a buggier/less ergonomic version of Chrome dev tools (this is because Brave uses Chromium under the hood)
- Safari - installed by default on Mac OSX, it’s a buggy browser, good to test using it since it surfaces weird SVG and cookies security policy quirks. Since it’s the default it’s also widely used by non-technical people.
- Enable the dev tools: Safari → Preferences → Advanced → Show develop menu in menu bar.
I use Visual Studio Code, it strikes the right balance between usable out of the box and customisable. The way I see it editors like vim or Atom need a bit of config before being productive, and others like Sublime or IDEs (WebStorm) don’t have the same plugin ecosystem.
Install VSCode command line tools
Open the dialog using CMD + P.
Use: Shell Command: Install 'code' command in PATH
The VSCode command line tool usage examples:
code .: open.directory in VSCodecode -r .: replace directory opened in VSCode with the current directorycode -a .: add current directory to VSCode, ie. initialises a workspace
Must-have extensions
- Atom keymap: I’m not a fan of the default keybindings, this uses Atom-style ones, get it from the Visual Studio Marketplace or
ext install atom-keybindingsfromCMD + Pmenu - EditorConfig for VS Code: “EditorConfig helps developers define and maintain consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs.” (see editorconfig.org), ie. helps you deal with tab size, trimming spaces etc. across code editors, get it here from the Visual Studio Marketplace or
ext install EditorConfigfromCMD + Pmenu
Nice to have extensions
- ESLint: “Integrates ESLint JavaScript into VS Code.”, get it from the Visual Studio Marketplace or
ext install vscode-eslintfromCMD + Pmenu - npm Intellisense: “autocomplete npm modules in import statements”, get it from the Visual Studio Marketplace or
ext install npm-intellisensefromCMD + Pmenu - Snazzy theme: same colour theme (snazzy) as I’ve got setup for the terminal for VSCode, get it from the Visual Studio Marketplace or
ext install snazzy theme - Import Cost: “Display import/require package size in the editor”, get it from the Visual Studio Marketplace, or
ext install import-cost
Not many productivity apps, just Alfred, which I use as a better Spotlight Search and Clipy which is a clipboard manager.
Maccy
A simple clipboard manager designed for OSX.
It works out of the box better than Clipy (see below).
Clipy Mac Os Download
Install it through Homebrew:
Update the preferred hotkey to CMD + shift + v:
Macos Clipboard Manager Reddit
Paste by default on selection of a clipboard item:
Superseded by Maccy Clipy
Bump up the number of “inline items” (Clipy → Preferences → Menu → Number of items place inline).
Set your screenshots to save to clipboard + enable the option to paste as plain text (Clipy → Preferences → Beta → Paste as PlainText + Save screenshots in history).
Update Xcode using xcode-select--``install.
Install Homebrew for package managements (think apt or pkg for Mac):
Install Node.js either from source, using the Mac installer or using Homebrew:
Install n – Interactively Manage Your Node.js Versions using npm (now that we have Node installed):npm install--``global n
Switch to latest Node version using n:sudo n latest
Install jq (format and deal with JSON nicely in the terminal) and watch (run a command repeatedly) using Homebrew

Add a few git extensions:
- git-open: “Type
git opento open the GitHub page or website for a repository in your browser.” usingnpm install --global git-open - git-standup: “Recall what you did on the last working day.” using
git standup, there are multiple install options (see git-standup#install), I usually go with:brew install git-standup - git-lg: simpler/prettier
git log:
Add the following minimal .vimrc, which enables syntax highlighting, has basic tab/tabsize configuration and enables line numbers display:
Set up SSH keys and add to VCS hosting, see this GitHub help article:
- Generate a new key:
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C '*[email protected]*' - Copy your public key to clipboard so you can paste it wherever your hosted Version Control system asks you to:
pbcopy < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

(Optional) Docker, VirtualBox
Docker is a containerisation technology, think VMs but smaller. I recommend Docker for Mac.VirtualBox allows you to run Virtual Machines on Mac, install it at VirtualBox downloads.

Regular readers of Mac Gems know that I spend a lot of time working with text—and that I’m always looking for ways to clean up that text. For the ultimate in text cleaning, my tool of choice is Unmarked Software’s textSOAP, which I covered back in December of 2004, but sometimes I just need to strip the formatting from text—remove its fancy fonts and styles. Based on the feedback I’ve received from readers, I’m not alone. It seems it’s fairly common for people to copy text from a Web page, e-mail message, or document, and then have to reformat it once it’s pasted into the target document.
In July 2004, I showed you Plain Clip, an application that, when launched, strips the formatting of text on the Clipboard. It’s a handy utility that I’ve used regularly over the past year and a half. However, I recently discovered Pozytron’s free PlaintextPaste 0.2 ( ). Instead of requiring you to launch a separate application to strip formatting from text, PlaintextPaste actually modifies the Edit menu of Cocoa applications to include a number of new and useful items:
- Paste Plain Text: Pastes the contents of the Clipboard as plain text, stripping all formatting.
- Copy Plain Text: Copies highlighted text, unformatted, to the Clipboard, never bothering to grab text styles in the first place.
- Paste as 7-Bit ASCII: Pastes the contents of the Clipboard as 7-bit ASCII, stripping all “high ASCII” characters (and, if possible, replacing them wth their closest 7-bit ASCII equivalents).
- Swap Selection with Clipboard: Swaps highlighted text with the contents of the Clipboard—in other words, this feature replaces highlighted text with the Clipboard’s contents and then places the text that was replaced onto the Clipboard. (If no text is selected, it pastes the Clipboard contents and then clears the Clipboard afterwards.)
- Special Characters: Choosing this item displays OS X’s Character Palette—useful if another third-party add-on has disabled it unintentionally. (If you end up seeing two Special Characters items, you can turn one off via PlaintextPaste’s preferences.)
Because these are actual menu items, you can use Mac OS X’s keyboard shortcut feature (in the Keyboard pane of System Preferences) to assign your own keyboard shortcuts. For example, you could assign Control-Shift-V to the new Paste Plain Text item.

Via PlaintextPaste’s preferences (in the SparkPlug pane of System Preferences—PlaintextPaste is a plug-in for the Spark InputManager), you can choose which of the above menu items appear, as well as whether they appear in the main Edit menu or in a submenu. In case of a conflict, you can also prevent the menu items from appearing at all in particular applications.
The biggest disadvantage of PlaintextPaste is that because of the way it modifies the Edit menu, its menu items appear only in Cocoa applications, such as Mail, TextEdit, OmniOutliner, Mellel, and Nisus Writer Express; Microsoft Word, BBEdit, and other non-Cocoa word processors and text editors are out of luck. In this respect, Plain Clip is more versatile—since it’s a separate application, it works with all applications. But if you spend most of your text time in Cocoa applications, PlaintextPaste is more convenient and provides more options.
PlaintextPaste is compatible with Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) and later.
