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.

Workstation

  • 13” MacBook Air, M1, 8GB RAM

    I was using an Intel-based notebook prior to this and the difference is night and day. I’ve never heard the fans turn on a single time and the battery life is a dream.

  • Philips - 34 Zoll WQHD (Curved)

    Thats my only monitor. I don´t need more.

  • Keychron K8

    Moved from Logitech MX Keys to this Keychron Board. Hot-swappable switches, keycaps for Win and Mac, Bluetooth and OS-Switch makes this keyboard to my new favorite.

Development tools

  • Postman

    No matter what kind of request I need to mock, Postman is my tool to go.

  • 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.

Productivity

  • Alfred

    It’s not the newest kid on the block but it’s still the fastest. The Sublime Text of the application launcher world.
