Uses

Here you will find a list of my favorite tools and apps that I use on a daily basis; for work and personal use.

Development

  • For the longest time I was using Visual Studio Code. But since , I have been using Cursor.
  • I'm using Ghostty as my terminal emulator. Previously I was using Warp but after a while I found it to be a little sluggish. I also don't like all their AI bloat on top.
  • I use Chrome as my default browser. I tried Arc and Zen, I just can't get used to the vertical tabs. Chrome is also the most performant and stable.
  • For some Laravel projects I like to use Tinkerwell for a better php artisan tinker enviroment. Check it out.
  • To manage and interact with my local and remote databases I use TablePlus with DBngin.
  • I also use Proxyman from time to time (same developer as TablePlus) for when I need a "network tab" while developing React Native apps.

MacOS apps

  • You should definitely try Raycast. It's my favourite app of all time and I use it for many things. For example:
    • Window Management.
    • AI Chat (Yes, I have the Pro subscription).
    • Emoji Picker.
    • Clipboard History.
    • Text Sniping (capture text from an image)
    • And many more things through extensions :)
  • For task management in my personal life and miscellaneous work tasks I use Todoist.
  • I sometimes take notes in Apple Notes but I like typing in Markdown so thats where ProNotes app comes in.

Desk setup

  • I have a Macbook Pro 16' M1 Pro (2021). Which is still blazingly fast!
  • For my mouse while gaming I use the Glorious Model O.
  • My keyboard is the Keychron K8 Pro.
