Ubuntu set up networking
Install NetworkManager, as the wpagui UI sucks sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome YOU MUST remove interfaces from /etc/network/interfaces so wpa gives them up to nm-applet add nm-applet to startup if needed - i don't think it is needed as it seems to start up automatically now - try rebooting first

Ubuntu install Sublime
Sublime editor seems way better than anything else out there on linux: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-3 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sublime-text-installer git config --global core.editor "subl -n -w" # to use sublime with -n(ew window) and -w(ait for exit)

Ubuntu install Node.js
Install Node.js using the "Node.js Version Manager" nvm details find the latest nvm version curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.31.0/install.sh \| bash source ~/.profile nvm ls-remote nvm install ##### # (latest version, eg 5.8.0) MDM I don't need this do I? I'm not running express... npm install -g express # to set the package manager to use a globally shared location nvm alias default stable (update .bashrc to configure node on even non-interactive shells - see another for example) also: nvm use 4.2.1; node -v; nvm ls; nvm alias default 0.11.13; nvm use default also: You can create an .nvmrc file containing version number in the project root directory and it will default to that version

Ubuntu install Java

Install Oracle JDK 8 (9 is scheduled for release in 2016)

su -
add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
apt-get update
apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
apt-get install oracle-java8-set-default

- ctrl-D (back to user)

update-alternatives --config java # make note of path
update-alternatives --config javac # make note of path
sudo subl /etc/environment
JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java" # actually, use the path from above, of course
