Replaced by Raycast Maccy a newer, lighter, easier to install version of Clipy.Replaced by Raycast Lacona, “Launch apps and find your files instantly” a better “better spotlight” than Alfred.Replaced by Raycast Rectangle, “Move and resize windows in macOS using keyboard shortcuts or snap areas”.Joplin, a free, secure, open-source, cross-platform notes app.Stats, “macOS system monitor in your menu bar”, I use this to see Battery levels as well as CPU/RAM/network usage (on some machines I also have temperature/fan info).Which means I can use 1 app instead of 2-3 (Rectangle, Lacona, Maccy) Raycast, improved spotlight that also does clipboard management and window resizing.

I’ve detailed how I set up my desktop apps at A simple JavaScript/Node coding setup on Mac OS X It’s clean but gives you enough information to be productive. zsh through the oh-my-zsh manager, which sets you up with auto-completion and plugins.Colour theme: snazzy using iterm-snazzy.iTerm2 app, it’s just a better Terminal than the default one (see how I set it up at A simple JavaScript/Node coding setup on Mac OS X).Ash or Night theme (when I don’t want to bother downloading an extra theme).Import Cost: “Display import/require package size in the editor”, ext install import-cost.npm Intellisense: “autocomplete npm modules in import statements”, ext install npm-intellisense from CMD + P menu.ESLint: “Integrates ESLint JavaScript into VS Code.”, ext install vscode-eslint from CMD + P menu.EditorConfig for VS Code, ext install EditorConfig from CMD + P menu.Atom keymap, ext install atom-keybindings from CMD + P menu.Visual Studio Code, with the following extensions Anker SoundBuds Slim Bluetooth Headphones - there’s some Anker love going on here, but they make for good items price-quality ratio.įull coding setup walkthrough: A simple JavaScript/Node coding setup on Mac OS X.AmazonBasics Slim Wireless Bluetooth Mouse - another cheap, dependable Bluetooth enabled piece of equipment (no USB receiver needed).Anker Ultra Compact Slim Profile Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard - very cheap Bluetooth keyboard can’t recomment Anker enough.Portable Charger Anker PowerCore 20100mAh.The microphone is almost a bit too sensitive with background noise on calls but served me well.

Superb noise cancellation and battery life for wireless headphones. This is probably the reason I haven’t dabbled too much in video, opting for a blog-heavy approach, rendering out a 5min video takes an hour or so. Bought second hand, able to create demos, and run web applications including Docker Compose with multiple services + database(s) fine.

I’m the wearer of many hats at Code with Hugo.
