Software & Hardware I use and love.

Workstation

  • 13.6” MacBook Air (2022), M2, 16 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD, M2 GPU (10 Core), Midnight Blue

    I was using a 13" MacBook Pro prior to this for like 7 years. It really did a great job so I didn't see the point to buy a new one. But then in 2022, I already felt that it got a bit slower and I was teased by the beautiful design of the MacBook Air (Midnight Blue).

  • 27" ViewFinity S9 5K IPS Smart Monitor

    I upgraded from my SAMSUNG M7, 32" 4K Smart Monitor to this one. I didn't want to sacrifice on resolution. I wanted to have the same experience that my Retina display gives me. After comparing some models, I decided to go with this one. It's also a Smart Monitor but in 5K. Now I have my Retina-like experience!

  • Apple Magic Keyboard (1st choice)

    This is my go-to keyboard and I'm most productive with this one. Since I still like mechanical keyboards, I'm sometimes using the Nuphy AIR75.

  • Nuphy AIR75 Keyboard (2nd choice)

    Whenever I feel like I need to hear that sound again, I just switch to this keyboard.

  • Apple Magic Mouse

    I always enjoy working with this mouse and would definitely buy it again, but Apple really needs to solve the issue that you can't charge while using it. My idea is a mouse pad that supports wireless charging so it charges the mouse while working.

Development tools

  • Visual Studio Code

    After I tried a couple of different editors, for me, this is the one I'm most productive with.

    code.visualstudio.com

  • Cursor

    I recently started using Cursor and subscribed tpo the basis tier to give it a shot and test it over the upcoming weeks and month.

  • Tailwind CSS

    Tailwind Lover from day one. Currently trying out the v4 Beta which is already used on this website that you're currently looking at.

  • Tailwind UI

    Recently I bought the All-Access license and I already used many of the components in my projects.

  • Hyper Terminal

    For the few things I do with the terminal, I feel like iTerm is too much of an overload so I'm happy pretty happy with this.

  • Yaak API Client

    After Insomnia, I switched to Yaak because of the reasons, the same creator mentioned in his blog post.

Productivity

  • Apple AirPods (4. Generation)

    I upgraded to the 4th generation AirPods because I wanted to have the noise cancellation feature and I didn't regret it!

  • Spotify

    I can really get into the notorious coding tunnel by listening to the right music. Mostly it's Vaporwave.
