What do I use?

When considering software tooling, I try to use open-source, well-maintained tools whenever possible. I take a different approach with hardware.

Hardware

  • 14" Macbook pro with a magic trackpad and keyboard
  • Logi 1080p webcam on an inexpensive light stand.

Shell

  • hyper.js with cobalt2 theme and summon

    • Font: fontFamily: 'MesloLGS NF, Menlo, "DejaVu Sans Mono", Consolas, "Lucida Console", monospace',
  • zsh

  • oh-my-zsh

  • powerlevel10k

Code Editors

  • VSCode
  • Vim (this is still useful for work on servers where latency isn't the best)

VSCode Extensions

  • Better Comments
  • Better TOML
  • Add jsdocs comments
  • eslint/prettier/css formatter
  • direnv
  • docker
  • erb formatter/beautify
  • ES7 + React/Redux/React-Native Snippets
  • Gitlens
  • Synthwave 84 Theme

Vim Extensions

  • Pathogen
  • Nerd Tree
  • Vim ColourSchemes

Git

  • I use the command line git tools mainly. Sometimes, I use the Git extension in VSCode along with Gitlens for Git Blame.

Language Version Management

  • asdf-vm

Design

  • Affinity Designer/Paint
  • Heropatterns
  • Heroicons
  • Undraw Illustrations
