  eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"

  brew install asdf

  In ~/.config/fish/config.fish add:

  # Asdf (Version Manager)
  # output of: echo -e "source "(brew --prefix asdf)"/libexec/asdf.fish"
  source /opt/homebrew/opt/asdf/libexec/asdf.fish

Setup Development Environment

Rust

brew install rustup
fish_add_path "$HOME/.cargo/bin"

# Enable tab completion
mkdir -p ~/.config/fish/completions
rustup completions fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/rustup.fish

Note: I don't install Rust with Asdf because Rustup can already do everything I need. And thanks to Editions, I see no point in having anything but the latest version of Rust.

Elixir

# erlang
asdf plugin-add erlang
asdf install erlang latest
asdf global erlang latest

# elixir
asdf plugin-add elixir
asdf install elixir latest
asdf global elixir latest

Testing

Elixir does not directly have a way to watch the filesystem and run tests. But it provides a way to restart tests by listening on stdin.

brew install fswatch
fswatch lib test | mix test --stale --listen-on-stdin

TypeScript

# npm
asdf plugin-add nodejs
asdf install nodejs latest
asdf global nodejs latest

# yarn
asdf plugin-add yarn
brew install gpg
asdf install yarn latest
asdf global yarn latest

Go

asdf plugin-add golang
asdf install golang latest
asdf global golang latest

Maintenance

# Keep things up to date
brew update; and brew upgrade; and brew cleanup

# Check that nothing's broken
brew doctor
