Mac Mini Setup Guide
SkillSkill
Turn a fresh Mac mini into a real AI builder workstation, one command at a time.
About
Mac Mini Setup Guide is a practical, terminal-first setup package for turning a mostly fresh Mac mini into a machine that is actually ready for AI builder work.
It walks the buyer through the setup in a sane order: first-boot checks, Xcode Command Line Tools, Homebrew, Git, SSH, Node, Python, Docker, workspace structure, local AI tooling, environment-file hygiene, and optional Bankr wallet setup.
This is not a vague checklist and it is not a giant opaque bootstrap script. It is a command-by-command guide with verification points, expected outcomes, common failure notes, and maintenance guidance so the buyer finishes with a working machine and understands what they actually configured.
The value is not just “save some time.” The value is avoiding the usual half-day mess of outdated blog posts, broken copy-paste setup commands, mystery PATH issues, bad repo hygiene, and sloppy secret handling.
If someone wants a clean macOS workstation for coding-agent workflows, OpenClaw projects, AI toolchains, Docker-based work, and sane local development, this gives them a clear path without fluff.
