Software I use, gadgets I love, and other things I recommend.
I get asked a lot about the things I use to build software, stay productive, or buy to fool myself into thinking I’m being productive when I’m really just procrastinating. Here’s a big list of all of my favorite stuff and ones I could afford.
Workstation
13' MacBook Pro, i5, 8GB RAM (2017)
Prior, I used a Dell Inspiron 7000 with Manjaro Distro, the main difference is the MacOS convenience
HP 27F FHD (2018)
I use one monitor for now, but I’m planning on getting a second one.
Development tools
Sublime Text 4
I don’t care if it’s missing all of the fancy IDE features everyone else relies on. Sublime Text is fast, lightweight.
iTerm2
I’m honestly not even sure what features I get with this that aren’t just part of the macOS Terminal but it’s what I use.
TablePlus (Free version)
Great software for working with databases. Has saved me from building about a thousand admin interfaces for my various projects over the years.
Will add more soon, my wish list, and other things I use.
