Post-Setup Scripts

The Post-Setup Scripts in Linux Tools are designed to automate essential system configuration after a fresh Linux installation.

🎯 Purpose

• Quickly set up a ready-to-use environment without manual package installs.
• Offer multiple presets so you can match the setup to your needs.
• Work across multiple Linux distributions while using the native package manager.

📦 Presets

• Media — Installs VLC, MPV, Celluloid, FFmpeg, HandBrake, and media codecs.
• General — Installs everyday CLI utilities and productivity tools.
• Lite — Minimal essentials for small footprint systems.
• Full — General + Media + development/virtualization tools.
