Description

On both Mac and PC we have the option to select "a" or "all" installations, so we get no more prompts for each installation. We should give more info at the beginning about what's going to be installed and add step count to orient the end users how far are they with the installation and what kind of changes to expect. Something like that

This set up script will install on your machine the following:
1 chocolatey/brew
2. Java
3. Android SDK
...

And on each question we should have

Step 1 of 5
Allow the script to install Homebrew?
