My Toolbox
The tools, software, and gear I use to turn caffeine into code. This setup is constantly evolving, much like my understanding of CSS Grid. Inspired by uses.tech.
Development Arsenal
-
Visual Studio Code
My daily driver - customized with enough extensions to make it run like a sloth, but look like a race car
-
Warp Terminal
Because life's too short for slow terminal emulators. Plus, it has AI built in!
-
Postman
For when I need to yell at APIs professionally
-
Docker
It works on my container
Tech Stack Favorites
-
TypeScript
JavaScript with trust issues (in a good way)
-
React + Next.js
For building UIs that don't make users cry
-
Node.js
JavaScript on the backend - because we needed more chaos

-
Tailwind CSS
Never writing custom CSS again (okay, maybe sometimes)
Productivity Tools

Notion
Where my organized chaos lives - tasks, notes, and existential thoughts

-

A browser that's actually trying to reinvent browsing
