What I use

Here's what helps me do my day-to-day.

Workstations

13-inch, M1, 2020 MacBook Pro

This is my personal machine. With 16GB memory and 512GB storage it has plenty of power for what I need it for.

16-inch, M1 Pro, 2021 MacBook Pro

This is my work machine and it's quite a bit more powerful! With a faster chipset, 32GB memory and 1TB of storage it makes light work with the software and containers I run.

Development software

JetBrains IDEs

My go-to IDE is anything by JetBrains. They all come pre-packed with tons of features that just make my life easier. Currently I'm using PhpStorm and PyCharm.

iTerm2

Pretty sure this is a common terminal alternative everyone uses on MacOS. The shell I use is ZSH (Oh My Zsh) with Powerlevel10k.

OrbStack

A drop-in replacement to Docker for Mac, and a snappy one too. Works really well x86 emulation and requires less resources.

Bruno

The only "offline" API client with Git collaboration in mind. It's fairly new to the scene but it has already gained a lot of attention and works great.

Other software

Arc

Just recently made the switch from Brave and I'm really impressed with it. Comes with some nice features for development too.

Zed

From the creators of the Atom, they created a text editor that rivals Sublime Text, which is very impressive!

Boop

A neat text manipulation tool that already comes with an array of useful scripts. You can also create your own scripts too.
