I just finished (I think) writing a bash script to install all my essential software to Ubuntu GNOME. I'll be making more for different distributions but once I have one to go off of, I can do the rest fine.
I am very new to it all, however, and have barely gotten into using the cli so I'm sure that there are a ton of errors below. If you could just read through it and let me know what I can fix/improve, that would be wonderful! This is meant to run a nearly clean install; I'll have to open Firefox and download two files; the script and the extensions list. Other than that, everything is still set to default.
