Uses

My /uses entry, inspired by Wes Bos and uses.tech. Last updated in February 2024.

Development

• My main editor is Visual Studio Code.
• I mostly use Chrome for work and Firefox for personal projects.
• For my terminal, I use Warp after starting on iTerm2. Warp has a sleek UI and a ton of quality of life features.
• I accelerate my development and automate repetitive tasks with Copilot.
• Vite is my preferred build tool for new projects, though I am also comfortable with Webpack.
• I use Storybook for component development.
• My code stays hygienic with ESLint and Prettier.
• I design in Figma.

Hardware

• My current laptop is a MacBook Pro M3 Max with 128 GB RAM and 1 TB of storage.
• I have a dual monitor (1 vertical, 1 horizontal) + laptop stand setup. More screens = more productivity?
• AirPods Pro everywhere.
• I use a Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad.
• I navigate with a Logitech MX Master 3S mouse. The Magic Mouse is one of the worst products ever made. Don’t @ me.

Productivity

• I use Notion for notes, project management, and journaling.
• I track tasks with Todoist.
• I manage my windows with Rectangle.
• I store my passwords in 1Password. I gave up on LastPass after all the security breaches.

This Website

• I use Astro for static site generation.
• I host this website on Netlify.

Desktop Apps

• I use Spotify for listening to mostly electronic music.
• I produce music with Ableton Live Suite.
• I build crosswords with Crossfire.
