some great suggestions here! I'll just list ones not seen already:

• fish shell - out of box you already get what you have to spend more time configuring w oh my zsh
• homebrew - package manager for MacOS
• pypyr - for automating & running and consolidating ad hoc scripts. (I might be biased on this one, I wrote it 😂)
• GitHub Actions - you mention GitHub already, but special mention to the relatively new GitHub Actions for the awesome free CI/CD capabilities. Oh, also GitHub Pages!
• hugo - static web-site generation
• zopfli compression - great for PNG compression. Although, that's prob just about been supplanted by Brotli today.
• arch linux

[edit:] oh, and curl, definitely

I've a few:

• Linux
• Vim
• Git
• Xcode
• Visual Studio (community edition)
• PyCharm (community edition)
• Google Test, or Boost Test, or Catch2, or Doctest
