Boxstarter: quickly setup a machine with just a Gist

Interesting:
Quickly setup any machine with just a Gist – No Preinstalled software required
Want to setup your box without downloading any software or fussing with package authoring or publishing?
Well buckle up! Boxstarter makes this a snap!
Boxstarter makes it really easy to script things when you have a working internet connection.
The example script they show does a lot of things I normally configure by hand:
Set-WindowsExplorerOptions -EnableShowHiddenFilesFoldersDrives -EnableShowProtectedOSFiles -EnableShowFileExtensions Enable-RemoteDesktop cinst fiddler4 cinst git-credential-winstore cinst console-devel cinst sublimetext2 cinst poshgit cinst dotpeek
Thanks Thomas Mueller for pointing me to this.
Boxstarter does all kind of neat things with NuGet and Chocolatey.
