Anything and everything to make it easy to set up a Windows developer box from scratch.
This repository contains everything that I use to automate my Windows system setup. I had to re-install the OS on my developer box more than once, and every single time I had to set it up just right in an effort to make it work and behave the way I wanted it to. At some point I just decided to automate as much of that process as possible - this repository contains those pieces of automation.
All scripts are located in the scripts folder. You will need administrator permissions to make sure that the changes stick.

Open an issue so that I can investigate.
Probably not, unless there is a very good reason to. Where possible, I am trying to stick to PowerShell and Batch, because those are available out-of-the-box and don't require any additional frameworks/SDKs/installations. If you feel strongly about this, either fork the repository and make the changes you need for you or open an issue so that we can discuss.
Probably not. This works on my machine, where it's intended. This might not work in other places, and it might not be compatible with specific company policies or restrictions.
I don't like that you have a specific registry setting in a script. Can I open a pull request to remove it?
If it's something wrong/incorrect, please open an issue first so that I can investigate. Otherwise, feel free to fork the repository and make whatever changes are appropriate for you. This repository is first and foremost for my own use, for my own machine.
Nope. It might very well be that one of the scripts will not work/have unintended side-effects. No guarantees, either implied or otherwise, exist in this repository.
Not in this repository. At some point, I will clean up and publicize my macOS automation scripts as well.
