Tools, apps, and devices I use
These are devices, applications, and tools, which I use daily, that make my job easier.
Most developers often spend time on their setup, and I am no exception. I like organizing my computer and tools to make the most of my everyday tasks. These devices, tools, and software help me achieve that.
I also wrote about my favorite browser extensions and VS Code settings.
I was inspired by Harry Robertson’s setup and Wes Bos’s setup pages. My setup is also featured on the /uses site.
