# Developer Onboarding

A comprehensive developer environment setup toolkit that automates the installation of essential tools and configures Git and SSH for seamless development workflows.

## Overview

This project provides scripts and documentation to quickly set up a development environment with all the necessary tools, from basic system utilities to modern development tools and containerization platforms.

## Quick Start

### Prerequisites
- Ubuntu/Debian-based Linux system
- `sudo` privileges for package installation
- Internet connection

### Setup Process

1. **Run the onboarding script:**
   ```bash
   chmod +x onboarding.sh
   ./onboarding.sh
   ```

2. **Follow the interactive prompts:**
   - Configure Git username and email
   - Generate SSH keys for secure Git operations
   - Test SSH connection to your Git server

## What Gets Configured

### Git Configuration
- Global username and email setup
- Credential caching for convenience
- Color output for better readability

### SSH Key Management
- Ed25519 SSH key generation (modern, secure)
- Automatic key copying to clipboard
- SSH connection testing to Git server

## Files in This Repository

- `onboarding.sh` - Main interactive setup script
- `onboarding.sh.save` - Backup/alternative version
- `applications.md` - Complete list of installed applications
- `README.md` - This file

## Usage Tips

- The script is idempotent - safe to run multiple times
- SSH keys are only generated if they don't already exist
- Git config is only set if not already configured
- All operations are interactive with user confirmation

## Customization

You can modify the `onboarding.sh` script to:
- Change the Git server URL (currently set to `10.0.30.169:3000`)
- Adjust SSH key types or parameters
- Add additional Git configuration options

## Support

If you encounter issues:
1. Ensure you have the required permissions
2. Check network connectivity to the Git server
3. Verify SSH key permissions (`chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_ed25519`)

## Contributing

Feel free to submit issues or pull requests to improve the onboarding experience.
