Uses

Here’s what’s in my digital toolbox — the gear I use to write code, craft interfaces, and stay productive.

Editor + Terminal

My main battlestation is WebStorm, unmatched for TypeScript, Vue, and React projects. For backend work, I use Rider for C#/.NET and PHPStorm for PHP-based projects.
I’m currently experimenting with Cursor. AI-assisted coding feels like the future, and I’m curious to see how it fits into my daily workflow.
Ghostty is my terminal of choice: sleek, minimal, and lightning fast. I still keep iTerm2 around for nostalgia.
I mostly stick with Chrome, not perfect but reliable and fast enough to stay out of my way.

Raycast is my command bar sidekick. My dock is basically retired.
Homebrew automates my setup, from CLI essentials to niche dev tools.
Once a heavy Adobe user (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects), I now prefer Figma for its clean, collaborative interface.
TablePlus handles all my SQL database work with a clean and intuitive UI.
1Password keeps my credentials safe and synced across devices.
MiniSim & Xcode serve as my mobile testing grounds, where I push layouts to their limits and debug scroll views.
Raindrop.io is my digital library for articles, tools, inspiration, and occasionally a meme disguised as research.
BetterTouchTool is my Swiss Army knife for window management. I even mapped F13–F15 for maximum obscure key-flexing.

My daily driver is a 13” Apple MacBook M1 MAX with 32GB RAM — small form, big power.
Connected to a 27” Apple Studio Display, a stunning screen that helps me maintain focus.
I sit like royalty in a Herman Miller Aeron, one of my smartest purchases, upgraded with Rollerblade wheels to glide into meetings effortlessly. Shoutout to Wes Bos for the inspiration.
The desk is a custom-cut countertop mounted on an IKEA standing gaming desk frame, minimal yet rock solid.
Keyboard: Apple Magic Keyboard with numpad. Mouse: Magic Mouse 2 — love it or hate it.
Audio setup: Pioneer DJ studio monitors, perfect for deep focus or casual beat-making.

My system is continuously backed up using Backblaze, ensuring nothing important is ever lost.
Time Machine runs local backups for an extra layer of safety.
All code is version-controlled and backed up on GitHub, with private repositories for personal projects and organization repos for team work. I also leverage GitHub Actions for automated testing and deployment workflows.
