I’m not famous, nobody has ever asked me what I use, however, I felt the urge to tell you guys about it. To be honest, it’s also a good reference for me to set up my workflow in a new environment.

Let’s start!

Editor

• Visual Studio Code has been my main editor for the past +3 years. Love it.
• SynthWave ‘84 is the theme. Yes, I like puprle. A lot.
• Cascadia Code with ligatures on is the font I’m using.

Extensions:

• DotENV: Syntax highlighting for .env files.
• ESLint: Lint JavaScript and TypeScript. Constantly reminds me I’m stupid because of importing modules that I don’t use.
• Git Graph: Git graphs inside editor.
• GitLens: Honestly, it has too many features I’m not even sure which ones I’m using.
• Prettier: Format and beautify code.
• Project Manager: Manage projects (Save, open, delete, etc).
• TODO Highlight: Highlight todos in the code.
• Toggle Quotes: Toggle quotes. Very useful in JavaScript.
• vscode-styled-components: styled-components syntax highlighter.

Desktop apps

• Adobe XD to design interfaces.
• Alfred, launcher with tons of features.
• Cmder, my go-to terminal when I’m on Windows.
• Compass, a GUI to manage MongoDB.
• Dozer to hide status bar icons
• Firefox for both development and browsing.
• IINA, modern media player.
• iTerm2 + Oh My Zsh is my default terminal. Using the same theme as VS Code with Menlo font.
• Notion, writing posts like this with it.
• Pocket, to bookmark and save content.
• PopClip, handly little app to perform actions when you select a text.
• Port Manager, view and kill ports from status bar.
• Postman, API client.
• RunJS, JavaScript scratchpad and playground.
• Spotify for music. Follow me for epic playlists.
• Telegram, my favorite messenger. Lovely app.
• TickTick, for TODOs. Tried so many apps before, but this one is really simple and fast to use. Great integration too.
• Winds, for RSS and podcast.

Computers

• Macbook Pro 2017, 13” base model.

• Custom built gaming PC:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
  • GPU: GEFORCE GTX 1050 TI (4GB 128BIT GDDR5)
  • RAM: 16GB, Crucial Ballistix Sport
  • Asus AB350-Gaming 3 motherboard
  • Micorsoft wireless mouse & keyboard (not gaming)

Hardware

• LG 29” monitor “29UM69G-B”
• Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones. Superb sound, comfortable ear cups and great noise cancellation. Best thing I bought in 2019.
• Kindle Paperwhite, for rare times that I want to read a book.
