Introduction

Basically a product designer's guide to set up a machine for UX design & UI development. *Updated for MacOS Tahoe*

This quick guide was initially created to set up a designer’s vibe-coding environment based on my experience at GoDaddy. Originally, it evolved from a designer UI development setup that was adopted at Symph and Abstract Digital. Now I’m sharing it with the world to help supercharge other design teams—and anyone who loves shipping digital products! 🚀

If you feel that:

• You want a consistent dev environment for your design team ⚡

• You’re a designer who needs easy instructions for setting up dev tools on your machine 💻

• You’re a designer who wants to show off how cool your terminal looks 💪

Then this guide might be for you.

Feel free to use this guide—share it, fork it. There’s no need to follow it strictly. This guide is tailored to my personal workflow and tech stack, so please feel free to adapt it to suit your needs. 🦄✨
