Necessary to ensure the Homebrew directory remains clean and is *only* managed by Homebrew. All other programs are downloaded straight from the provider and placed in the `/usr/local/bin` instead.
Necessary to provide a single source of truth for installing Node
dependencies. This used to be managed by the Yarn Setup project but
that project is being deprecated in favor of this project.
Necessary to ensure mas is installed before executing the script. This
reduces the strain on downstream projects/scripts from having to do
this check. This was previously part of the macOS Configuration project
but has been moved here as central location for core functionality.
Necessary for answering CPU of current machine when determining what
kind of functionality should be used when executing scripts on Silicon
or Intel based hardware. In this case, it'll answers "M1" when using an
Apple Silicon chip. For Intel based machines, nothing will be answered
since they use multiple "Processor" fields.
- Improves loading of the correct Bash environment/version, especially
on systems that might not be using a standard install (i.e.
Homebrew), by loading a version of Bash as defined by the environment
rather than a hard coded path.

- This is a copy of the [OSX](https://github.com/bkuhlmann/osx) project
originally released on 2012-03-31. The OSX project has been
deprecated. All future development and support will take place with
this project instead.
- This project uses the *macOS* name in order to better match the
updated branding and terminology used by Apple.
