This page lists some of the tools and things I use regularly. It’s inspired by the many people who’ve shared their own setups over o uses.tech.

Hardware

  • MacBook Air - My main computer for development & writing.
  • Jarvis Standing Desk - Had it for a while and still standing strong. Sometimes use it in the standing setting.

Software

  • Obsidian - For note taking, to-do lists, second brain. Effectively a catch all for all types of notes.
  • Visual Studio Code - Current IDE, just jumped on the bandwagon after using Sublime Text for so long.
  • Firefox - Current browser of choice.
  • LastPass - My current password manager with plans to move to Bitwarden.
  • iTerm2 - Terminal emulator.
  • Oh My Zsh - The shell and configuration framework I use.
  • dotfiles - My own dotfiles to configure my laptop and development environment.
  • Docker - Used to create local environments for many projects I work on.

Analogue

  • Moleskine notebooks - Notes, sketches and freeform ideas. Usually go for the Cahier Journals, both large and pocket sized.
