Okay. So, we are talking Omari today. Uh

for those who do not know, uh it is a

Linux distro put together by David, the

creator of Rails.

And he has put a lot of effort and love

into like all the little things that I I

mean I don't even know how many hours he

has spent putting this together and not

just the hours that uh he put uh getting

to read all the dogs of Hyperland of

whatever but also putting his knowledge

and the way he manages other of his

businesses and making this distro

scalable thing and possibly it will be

able to live for long and and survive

any anyone touching the config on their

own and it seems a pretty pretty good um

project but in the other hand what I

mean is that it's still Linux so um

every time you change a line a

configuration anything you have a 5050%

chance of breaking something on the next

reboot. So uh for everyone

believing that this all is is kind of

like impossible anywhere else, I just

want you to I just want to show you that

it is doable like not everything of

course like the the theming the the

customization that Linux offers cannot

be achieved everywhere else but the

functionality like he's selling this as

the perfect developer developer

environment And I would say probably

he's 98.5%

correct. But the thing is that if you

cannot trust a reboot,

I I don't know if it's that that

perfect. So, I'm going to show you how

to configure your Mac in a way that uh

all most of these things that you will

see on this video. Uh you can you can

pretty much configure them on Mac and

let let's go for it. So, we're going to

start with a keyboard navigation.

The thing is that I would recommend you

it's not 100% necessary but just not to

conflict with any other uh mappings that

the system has. Not having to learn or

make up like really architecture your

mappings in a way that's very difficult.

I would recommend you to download

Carabiner Elements.

This program what allows you is to

create a combo of key combinations just

by hitting an specific key. So I'm just

going to open it.

It's got elements. And in here, well,

this is a personal preference is just to

use the cap the caps lock for the left

control. So I I would have an easier

reach of this key. But what you have to

do is go here to complex modifications

and well add a predefined one and it's

the first one caps lock to command

control option and shift. So once you

enable it I will have it uh here. Yeah,

it's this one. I don't want to modify my

old ones. I just change this because I

want to remember. So I would usually do

the right command. I don't need two

And once I hit write the right command,

uh, it will be like if I was hitting all

this. I'm I'm going to just open the

keycast thingy. Keycaster. Yeah.

And I will I don't know if it's Yeah,

it's already on. I don't know if you can

see it here since my background is

pretty dark. But as you can see, once I

I touched it, everything goes light up.

Now I'm just going to touch the regular

command. Just one lights up. So that

that works. I'm just going to delete

this one because I don't need it.

Actually, for my configuration, I also

have the right option. So when I hit it,

as you can see, everything lights up

except the actual option key. And this

one I just use it for uh changing uh

applications, moving them from one

display to another one. But just so you

know that this is doable. Now we can

start using raycast. I will also

recommend this one. You can do it

without raycast. But this just helps you

so much that I would not understand

anyone not downloading it. So first what

you need to do is go onto the settings

just by hitting command comma. that will

open here. I'm going to just go for the

ones that I I will show you first the

ones that I use. I basically have the

hyper key, let's call it, is the like

this this thing that we've just created.

I have as the most uh like the most used

ones because my hand is always always on

the home row. So I can do a for my

terminal, S for the browser. So, I will

go just very very quickly. By the way,

if you're having now um

a very weird strange animation, you have

to go to the system settings,

then search for reduce

motion. If you don't turn this off, what

happens is this. Boom. Voom boom. I I

mean I I don't understand anyone just

not having brain damage after uh doing

that. So I actually I even have this in

here just in case sometimes I I'm doing

some web development and I amum I I need

to see the animations on the website

just because of that.

Anyways, I'm going to close this. I'm

going to go back here and I'm just going

to make a new uh application from here.

So things that I already created for

example uh he shows how to open web

applications like X here or Grock for

example I also had it here. So I first

show you how to create them. I am going to

tell me I don't have GitHub also. So I

can create something. Yeah I I have it

all. Let me go here. I'm going to show my

favorites part and that's it. Uh let's

try monkey type. Okay. So I will go

here. I will add to the dock. This one

just creates it and puts it on the dock.

But you don't really need to have it

here. Okay. Once once it's done, you can

just delete it, remove it from the dock,

but it's still on your system. So once I

go to raycast and I go into the settings

and I can add a I'm going to just going

to say um hyper and

8 just for testing but if I do hyper

eight now you see monkey type this is

just an extension that I have it always

happens the first time reject consent

next time I open monkey type.

Should not ask me for that much. And I

could just start typing or doing my

daily whatever I wanted. As you saw, I

can open X. I can open.

Okay. First thing, why X is not opening.

Oh, because I I don't have anything. I

should come here and said X would be X. YouTube

YouTube

can be YouTube

and Grock

could be Grock. So now I can do my

monkey type which goes to the

applications. It does not open a new

window which is the default uh kind of

behavior on Linux. You know when you

open a terminal with uh David has it

with the super key and the enter. I have

it with a okay but I I don't want to

open anyone. I just want to uh jump

between them. But I'm going to just open

the X Y.

um stage manager which I will show you

now how I do it. I'm going to reject all

I don't know what this is opening. I'm

sorry. The thing is that now I can show

you how I have set up some of these uh

key combos to order this. I can swap

them sideways. I can have them in

thirds. As you can see, pretty easy.

Everything works. The thing is that

there are more options which I don't

have specifically uh configured. I will

just show you how to do it. Uh keyboard

shortcuts for sure.

And then in here, okay, uh we go into

Windows first into Windows. I will just

I don't know if there's a key combo to

ex uh expand all this at the same time,

but anyways, I'll show you here. I don't

have I don't usually minimize the

windows. They're always opened or I just

close them right away. Fill and center.

So let's see if this centers. Okay,

center. Usually for other kind of

applications they stay like this and

then you can make it full screen or

center. Full screen or center. This may

be useful for many many reasons. Then I

don't have the tile left half which

would do like if I just had one window.

I'm just going to close everything here.

Bum bum blah blah blah. I'm going to

just open a Safari window. Then uh I

don't have the tilt to left. But if I

hit hyper H, it does this. If I have two

windows and I have uh hyper and and H, I

will have them side by side. So, the

thing is that uh well, first of all, I'm

going to uh reboot the key caster

because I just realized I messed it up.

Okay, I'm going to just show you again.

System shortcuts. Sorry for this. Okay,

Okay,

Windows. And I closed it

way too quickly.

So the thing is that this arrange left

and right and right and left, it does

pretty much the same as tile left if you

just have one window. So I'm just

avoiding one one key combination here.

Okay, I will never have top and bottom.

So I don't use it. It's okay if you want

to just do I don't know hyper up arrow,

hyper down arrow. You can do whatever

you want here, but I would also

recommend you to not use these ones and

do the arrange top to bottom, bottom to

top. That will make it then. And I don't

have the quarters because I'll never I

mean I kind of I I had it set up before.

I just never found uh I I don't like

this like hyperland by default. It will

open a window and then this window

becomes like this. Then you open a new one

one

and then this window comes here.

Actually we can do this. I I have that

uh sorry because it's taking this as the

third one and this one has like a

minimum size but um if I go to the other

one it will it will do it. Uh the thing

is that that one will become this size

once I open a new one.

Now it it wants it wants me to go crazy.

I'll go just here.

Then if I open a new one, it will get here.

here.

And I don't know about you, but if I am

even just going to Twitter or something,

I just get this little preview that is

like I I don't see how I I would have

any kind of useful information in just

these little spaces. So at least what I

want is half. So I would like to have

half and half. That's how I like to to

work. But you are free to just go crazy

and dive into these uh options and and

find out. Okay. Uh the quarters I have

them I I do believe I just put it here

for the I'm going to open a new one. A

couple new ones. So I would do this.

This is still getting like I don't want

to close it because then I will have to

open it and expand this. But you can

imagine it will make quarters for all of

it. I didn't put the common like the

hyper key and Q because I am on Mac OS

26 and for some reason that uh gives me

a problem. It wasn't giving me any

errors in previous versions. So I hope

and I guess this will change as well as

uh changing and cycling through windows.

I used to use hyper and c for cycle. It

does not work anymore in uh Mac OS 26

but I I hopefully like hopefully in a

few weeks when the final release comes

out uh it will be fixed. Okay. Anyways,

that's uh one thing here. But if we go

and we search for Mac OS title

window manager. Okay, that that will work.

work.

I'm going to go this way.

The thing is that they do these things.

Apple does this thing where they would

show you this on the website, but they

are not on the real uh version. I don't

even know if now on this uh

window window where move and resize.

Okay. So I mean they might have it here

now because I've been uh configuring

them manually. I don't know if you will

see this but if not you just need to go

we lost it again. Ah here keyboard

shortcuts app shortcuts and in here you

just need to create new one. So I would

say for example

quarters

And I would do

like let's say I

I'll go here. I go and you see it did it

even though it it usually is not on the

on the menu. You just need to put it

here as well as any other menu. For

example, remove window from set. It also

does not uh appear anywhere. But if you

are using a stage manager as I usually

do actually this is stage manager so we

are already in the only thing is that

I don't think we are in

now we are

okay so the thing is that now that we

are here if we were to be

I don't know let's let's try to remove

this window from the set so we cycle

through them

I stop when I want and then uh it was

they are right.

Oh, fail operation keyboard shortcut. Shortcuts.

Shortcuts. Okay.

Okay.

Okay. So, I I have it open, right? Yeah.

Uh what did I choose here? Removed from

the list. One, two, three, four, and the R.

Let's see. I mean, if it's failing, like

I mean, I I believe me when I tell you

that it usually works. So, so yeah, it

is failing at the moment

for some reason. So, like it will do

like you might have this two windows

side by side. You don't want this

anymore, but you don't want to close it.

You will just get rid of it. It will go

away. And then I Yeah.

Yeah.

And then it will just disappear but not

being closed. Okay. I don't know why

it's not working now. Maybe you can. You

one little thingy. Okay. Up.

Up. Like since I've updated to the beta

version, I just do this thingies of

putting a number and then testing it

again. So I see that I have two. I am in

this one right now. I said the number

nine. Oh no, on Safari it goes to these

ones. So that that that may be the thing

also. Let's go and let's choose another

one that is not a number. Like for example

the equals

let's go

and equals

also doesn't do it. So I mean it's like

doing this remove from Okay, it's not

even as an option here right now. Yeah,

I guess there are some stage manager

real problems here.

They don't even show here anymore. Okay,

usually it's a pretty cool option.

Yeah, that's about it. So we have pretty

much those done. I would also obviously

I didn't mention it before but you will

need brew to be a cool a cool kit in

town. You will just go here go to your

terminal install it and all those

things. What happens is that I don't

know if everyone knows about this but

you would usually go like brew install um

T-max for example right and you will hit

enter and it will install it thing that

if you do group formula

formula

you get a list of everything that it's

in the repo and if you go and you do broadcasts

you get all the applications like VS

code or anything like that. So now there

is a funny thing you need to start just

going into your um how would you say it

like uh programming uh kind of like uh

brain and you can say brew formula

again and then you will pipe this

sorry

and then you can FCF and then once you

and you tell it to install it. So now if

I hit enter, I get here. I go T-Max.

Boom. I hit enter and it starts um

installing T-Max. And then once I have it,

it,

it is installed. Okay, I'm just going to detach

detach

H. And I'm going to actually remove it.

So we now need to do remove it.

Actually, I'm going to show you that I

had this thing is here. Um,

Um,

sorry. JJ,

this one. And I I mean, now we're going

to add it to an application and a

shortcut, but just so you can see that

uh you can post here and you can copy

both of these. And actually, you know

what? I'm going to junk it because we

will need it now. And what I'm going to

do is create a specific application. So

now I'm going to go to automator.

Did I Was that automator? I'm not sure.

Yeah, I mean I'm going so fast

sometimes. I will create a new

application in this one. I will call a script

script

and yeah build bash. It's perfectly

okay. And I am using ghosty. So I'm

going to do it for ghosty but you can

choose whatever you want. So, oh this is

so small like for real. Uh you need to

put this N here because if not it will

try to make this operation in an open

window. So if I have this one open and I

don't put the N it will like fail. It

will fail. So so it is just a reminder

do it. Then I will tell to open the

application ghosty. I'm going to pass

And this one is just to make sure

because the thing is that if you have a

different uh prompt like um starship or

whatever and you have all my CSH or you

don't have anything, this might fail if

it does not uh search on the uh C

profile um

file that you have on your root folder.

So it is just to to make sure this will

work on any

on any any computer.

N profile.

That's it. And now you put the command

that you want. So I had this the brew

list is ta uninstalled. So if I hit run

it opens a new um ghosty window

it shows me what I have and since I did

install Timmax and I don't want it I

will hit it. It will inst uninstall it

and um close the window. So if I now go

back here

and I say t-max should be in red. They

don't know that command anymore. I'm

going to close this. I'll go back to my

automator. And now when I close this,

boom. It will ask me where do I want to

save it. I don't believe I have

a folder because I mean for these things

and mostly because I'm telling you I

don't use this uh with a command. I just

use an alias. I will create my my apps

save and

and then then oh now I can just go into

raycast do

okay I'm going to close raycast and this

Let's see if it has closed. No, it's

still open. I usually have this here. I

don't have it anymore. So, I'm going to

Not even there. Oh, no. Sorry. I'm going

to go to the monitor. I'm not going to

use it on the top here. I'm going to go

But I'm sorry for this little time.

Let's search for raycast once it's it

loads. Ray cast

I will this happens like not that m that

many times but when it does well this is

what you need to do. Boom.

For squit.

Okay. Now as you can see it doesn't work

like truly. Are you telling me? Nope.

there. And I'll take Raycast. Yep.

Yep.

And now when I go here, I go to the settings

settings

and I can search for pro

uninstall. I can do I don't know the

minus for example. And now if I go, you

can see

it works. If I hit escape, it closes. If

I have um I don't know uh here something

working and I hit the minus, it opens a

new window. I would show you that here

is my other window and this one

is here. Not going to uninstall anything

but that's the way you do it for uh you

remember he does it with btop with um I

don't know if with a file man manager or

anything like that. I will show you just

that it it works. Let me just copy

because I forgot to copy before.

So for example here I will

have this with btop as you can see and I

will hit enter. It opens a new window.

I'll show you that's in a new window

because this is where we executed it and

I'm going to quit it. I'm going to go

again. I'm going to domin for example if

you have lazy beam or anything that

works with projects. So I mean that's

the way you you would be able to also

use it. I'm going to close that. And

what else? What else was he doing it

with? For example, imagine

you were doing it with Jassie.

You can do just Jassie or I have an

alias. I will use the alias FF.

Okay. So, this broke. I'm going to use

Yassi. I don't know. Yazi.

As you can see, it worked also. Boom.

And it closed the window. So that's the

way you can create as many um

interesting little things as you want.

And then uh make new applications using automator.

automator.

And well that is just we cover key

combinations and we cover

this way of like navigating through

windows and now how we can create new uh

applications using Safari and the add to

doc kind of thingy. I

I always then forget to remove them from

here but it is okay. It's still working.

Uh so I do believe that now we are going

to talk about the stage manager just one

bit because I mean we're trying to reach

the perfect um the perfect development

environment. So the thing is that when I

am not working I mean this might fail

because I've been seeing while recording

this video that the stage manager is

kind of like not working the way I truly

want it here. But I I have hopes. I am

going to just open system preferences

stage manager. One second just to show

you the options that there are. Stage

like really

now just need to put the space. So stage

manager it's desktop and stage manager. Um

okay here. So with this option you

already turn it on. Uh and then you can

I I usually I used to have this one at a

time. This means that for example when I

have it on and I have ghosty if I open

new windows of ghosty

okay they are now opening in the same uh

in the same like virtual desktop kind of

thing that stitch manager does. If I

have it one at a time, I go here. Let me

just close two of them. And if I create

new ones, I am creating like different I

mean it should have different ones. I

don't know why it it got with one here

and then one here and then it's kind of

like swapping. Well, I mean

bet working with beta versions. It

doesn't matter. What I wanted to show

you is that now I chose to use all at

once because if I am using this I want

to open three of them and do this cool

thingy that everyone likes to do. Well,

this is the way to do it to have it on

the same um window. Sometimes I am

researching anything here. I X I want to

open a new window. I will command N for

a new window. I will then do my hyperl.

It is side by side. And when I'm done

with this one, I will close it full

size. And that's about it. So I don't

know. I just find it uh very useful not

to do this and open like a new stage

manager, virtual desktop, whatever you

want to call it. H I start finding that

it is better just to have it at once.

With this stage manager, what we save is

like we don't need to create 17,000 new

uh virtual desktops right here. Uh

making keyboard shortcuts for whatever.

I don't know if you've seen the

Primagen's uh way to work. Um I mean

like I don't know this is the way I want

to do it but just imagine that you can

do several different things if you

create virtual desktops here. Just up to

you. You won't need stage manager. But I

just found that it helps me focus very

very much. By the way, you have to turn

this off or else you will be seeing this

here. And even if you um are like you're

trying to maximize the window here,

every now and then this will break your

window and it is just very very very

very annoying. I don't know why they

keep this uh option uh available on the

Mac. Uh I also wanted to show you like

why I use Safari for my common navigation.

navigation.

And this is something that I actually

found while uh I mean I a while back but

it was because of these key combinations

that I use thing is that if I am in

brave for example

which also I have an specific usually I

I just use it for development but I want

to go to my uh first uh bookmark here.

There is no way. I hit S and nothing

happens. The second should go to X, the

third to Grog and all of that. The thing

is that Safari, even if you don't

believe it, I hit one, it goes to my

first um

first uh you know what it is. Second to

Dex, third to Grog, fourth to G. Well,

we we we

messed it up because we

made this uh shortcut. Yep.

I believe we made the quarters, right?

Where is

I mean I should have record this and not demo.

Go here. Yeah, it's here. But it it was

not coming. I want to this should always

be carabiner. And we went to windows

arrange and then the quarters. That's

what I changed it but it still work with

no problem.

And now if I go four it will go to

GitHub. Okay, just so you can see uh

that avoids me to have to go to um

HyperX for X, Hyper

Y for YouTube and all those things. I

just go to the same window. I open

whatever I want. I create new tabs and I

go directly to what I need

if I don't

hit any other key obviously. And that's

about it. Um, also the menu bar I I just

don't like it here. So just if you are

like me, you would go menu bar

menu bar

and you will tell it to hide it all the time.

time.

Okay. And just for those brave ones,

ones,

I want to open that. And I'm going to skip

sketchy bar. I believe going to just

full size it. Boom. Yep.

This one is I will just show you this image.

image.

Okay. So, you can see you can do this on

Mac now that you can hide it. The thing

is that you can put on its place in its

place uh a virtual menu bar which you

can modify and do all those things. In

case you actually want to research this

option, I will uh tell you to go to this

person linku. Linkar su

is this one. I don't know what it show

me any other one and I'm sure he has a

sketchy bar kind of thing sketchy.

Okay. Well, um he will have something bar

bar

sketchy bar simple da da da da. So he he

makes videos about uh neovim about

programming about uh like having your

Mac super configure. Now he started

making podcast and it's a pretty

interesting pretty interesting guy. So

in case you want to do that that's the

way. He also interviewed a person who is

the developer for

kind of beam. Yeah.

And I'm sorry for the noises if you end

up listening to hearing something now.

Uh this app helps you uh be in beam mode

pretty much in any text area that you

can imagine. And also he has three

different apps.

Let me go to

X. Let me go here is

something like that

maybe. No,

it's not. I mean, I'll go kind of beam.

Kind of beam. Yeah. And we'll probably

follow. Yeah. You can see this one is

one of his other applications and this

is for scrolling. Uh I tried them out

and I couldn't get 100% convinced. So

just if you want, they're free uh most

of the times in the day and then

sometimes it random stops working.

But yep, that's about it. I just wanted

to show you that you can be a cool kid

on the Mac and do these kind of things

and and be happy with them, not being

afraid of using a fancy computer

uh running a common operating system.

And well, I just hope you like them. If

you for some reason have um any ideas or

you've been configuring something on

Linux and you are like, "Hey, I don't

know if this can be done on the Mac and

I feel safer rebooting my computer on

the Mac." Just um just leave it on the

comments. I I will just either I know if

it's a doable thingy or I can just find

out if we we can make something out. And

if not, just thank you for watching till
