|

This is my main Intel-based computer which I built in 2022. I've recently added more storage and
|
||
a new monitor. Click here to see a comprehensive listing of all the parts used in this build on
|

PCPartPicker.

<Tool title="Herman Miller Aeron Chair"
|
||
href="https://hermanmiller.com/en_eur/products/seating/office-chairs/aeron-chairs/">
|
||
I bought this chair second-hand when I started working for Apple, it's extremely comfortable and
|
||
ergonomic for those long hours spent at the desk.

|

<Tool title="JetBrains" href="https://jetbrains.com/">
|
||
I use a mix of JetBrain apps for my IDEs depending on what I'm working on. For JavaScript
|
||
projects, I use WebStorm. PyCharm for python and IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate for Java. I use the same
|
||
keyboard shortcuts across these apps which is great for productivity.
|
||
</Tool>
|
||
<Tool title="Insomnia" href="https://insomnia.rest/">
|
||
Good tool for designing and testing REST APIs. I used to use Postman but I found the interface too
|
||
cluttered and prefer the simplicity of Insomnia.

<Tool title="RegionToShare" href="https://github.com/tom-englert/RegionToShare">
|
||
Great app for Windows which allows you share a region of the screen, handy for single monitor
|
||
set ups such as ultrawides when you don't want to share the entire screen.

<ToolsSection title="Design">
|
||
<Tool title="Balsamiq Wireframes" href="https://balsamiq.com/">
|
||
I use this software for creating low-fidelity wireframes and interfaces. It's great for
|
||
experimenting with ideas.

|
||
<Tool title="Color Picker" href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/color-picker">
|
||
Color Picker is included in the PowerToys set of enhancements for Windows. Using the eye dropper you
|
||
can easily identify colours on the screen and copy the colour's code to your clipboard for use
|
||
in other applications.

|
||
<ToolsSection title="Automation">
|
||
<Tool title="AutoHotKey" href="https://autohotkey.com/">
|
||
AutoHotKey features it's own scripting language and allows you to create keyboard macros for
|
||
automating common tasks. For example, I use AutoHotKey to toggle between dark and light themes in
|
||
Windows on the fly.

<Tool title="Bitwarden"
|
||
href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bitwarden-free-password-m/nngceckbapebfimnlniiiahkandclblb">
|
||
Bitwarden is a free, open-source password manager, this Chrome Extension connects to a self-hosted
|
||
instance of Bitwarden which lives on my Raspberry Pi. It is really useful for syncing passwords across
|
||
devices.

<Tool title="uBlock Origin"
|
||
href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm">
|
||
Great extension for blocking those annoying YouTube ads and nasty tracking scripts.

|
||
<Tool title="Floccus"
|
||
href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/floccus-bookmarks-sync/fnaicdffflnofjppbagibeoednhnbjhg">
|
||
Floccus syncs your bookmarks across browsers and devices. It connects to my Nextcloud server via
|
||
WebDAV and keeps my bookmarks in sync, so no matter which device I'm using, I always have the
|
||
same set of bookmarks.
