Development
I primarily develop in Java and Kotlin for the backend. I like Vue for frontend but I am proficient enough to deliver rapidly in React as well. I have been dabbling on Golang recently and while not fully proficient, I love developing in it and will probably be my language of choice soon.
- IntelliJ IDEA - is my main IDE with Jetbrains Mono font. I stick to the default Darcula theme at night and Cyan Light during the day.
- iTerm2 - is my terminal replacement, but I barely use 25% of its features. I run it with Oh My Zsh! and Powerlevel 10k theme
- Digital Ocean for hosting my sideproject and this site is served through Netlify
- TablePlus for visualising databases
Services/Apps
- 1Password for managing my logins and passwords
- iAWriter for the times I need to focus on writing technical docs or blogs
- Drafts for quick and throwaway writing. All my unformed notes, quick scribbles go here
- Notion for managing projects and as an external brain
- Things 3 is my main Get Shit Done tool. I like the simplicity and aesthetics
- Alfred as spotlight replacement and handy clipboard but it does so much more I haven’t yet explored it enough
