Ask HN: How do you setup a new computer for programming?

2 pointsby spdebbarmaabout 6 years ago
I am purchasing a new laptop for work and I was wondering what steps do you take when setting up the new system. I would like a breakdown of what you do and how you organize repos, services, dependencies, softwares, etc.<p>What other best practices have you figured out after years of experience?<p>P.S.- I will be using a Windows system.

It really depends on what language(s), tools, frameworks and target domain.<p>You might want to look at some open source projects to see how they have structured the subdirectories within the project. I personally would simply have a D:&#x2F;Project&#x2F;abc&#x2F;.... structure.
