MacBook Pro 13,3 2016 (with touchbar - no T2 chip).

There are a lot of well written guides on GitHub on how to do this (I'll put the links below), so I'm just going to write down the steps I followed in my particular case and the problems I faced. So I though, what the heck, let's install Linux on my MacBook. Unfortunately there are not a lot of choices available for macOS, I found yabai which is great! but as I started to tweak config files to be more comfortable working with my laptop I started to feel that it wasn't enough.Īfter a month or so of using yabai I met i3-wm, and fell in love with it. I'm a software developer and I have A LOT of open windows and programs running at the same time, so I decided to give tiling window managers a shot. It all started a few months ago when I became curious about tiling window managers and how I could increase my day to day productivity. This might also help anyone trying to install Linux on any MacBook without T2 chip (2017 or older). I didn't know what to write about so I just decided to talk about what I'm doing right now, installing Linux on my MacBook Pro 2016 (model 13,3 - dual gpu with touchbar).

Hi there! 👋 This is my first post on dev.to.
