I just set up a new dev env on a new OSX, took about 1 day of toying around with a bunch of stuff. Having a preset recipe to follow would have saved me a ton of frustration. When I get another dev machine, will definitely give this a whirl.
Hi this is Tom, the author of SoloWizard. I would really appreciate any ones feedback on the product! :)
Very nicely done. I'd love a version of this that worked on Linux as well.
Thanks, agreed.
If there is linux support, one direction it could go is configurable chef script to setup a linux webserver. Where the sweetspot is those one-off linode servers you have to scrap together for a small project, where a full chef-server would be overkill.

You are one magnificent bastard. It looks very cool and sorely needed.
Few things. Firstly it would be nice to use collapsible sections for the FAQ or something to make the page simpler. Secondly it might be nice to mention that you are using brew to install most of the scripts. Just so I know where everything will end up. Thirdly maybe capitalise create.

Yeah, the FAQ section is a little unwieldy... I will make a note to clean that up. I will make the 2 small tweaks now (brew/capitalization).

Just a thought that maybe you could let some of those Mac Mini colocation hosting companies know about it as well. I am sure this would be a godsend for server deployments and they may already have scripts/free time they can contribute.
