Migration Assistant

I have a new MacBook Air, but don't want to move everything on to it from my old MacBook Pro. Can I move only selected applications, documents etc. with Migration Assistant?

Migration Assistant gives you some choices but not very many as shown here:

How to move your content to a new Mac - Apple Support

Migrate Assistant won't migrate any Apple apps, they will be untouched as you already have the new apps.

Be sure to run Migration Assistant when you first boot up your new Mac. After a few screens of Setup Assistant it will prompt you to migrate. The fastest way is to connect a Time Machine disk to your new Mac.
