Thank you for this. I have a slightly tangential question, can you point to some resources on the approach you used for this codemod? I see you used what seem to be native TS transforms. I've used a badly patched up jscodeshift and tscodeshift but they leave much to be desired.
I had a beefy gaming pc, but the graphics card died. I didn't have the money to shell for a comparable one, and I had been using the machine for developing more than gaming. So I got a cheaper graphics card and a wifi card, and went through the set up.
I've been using it for 2 years and a half now. I was on mavericks for a while, skipped yosemite, and did the clover setup for El capitan. Now I have regular updates that don't break everything, and this works pretty much as well as my MBP. I'm on android, so I don't worry about iMessage, but everything else works just fine.
It might save you some bucks if you get some deals on parts, but I'd say it's almost as efficient to get a mac mini. I'd say that the only advantage, is that you can easily upgrade parts if you come across the money since you have your own case and build.
