Tools and Apps

Tools and apps that I use on my work and personal projects. I like to share them with others, so I list them all here for ease of access.

OS

  • EndeavourOS - Basically Arch Linux with a very easy to use installer for people that doesn't know too much about Arch Linux, but with all the benefits of Arch Linux. It has been my daily driver for nearly 2 years now.
  • Awesome WM - Great customizable Tilling Window Manager in Lua. Easy to configure and make it your own.

Programming

  • NeoVim - My main text editor, previously I used Helix as my first Text Editor migrating from VSCode, and now I'm using it with the LazyVim config.
  • VSCode - I use occasionally when I need to resolve more complex merge conflicts.
  • lazygit - GIT UI for the terminal. As I stay more in the terminal, and use Vim bindings, it's really intuitive and fast to use.

Terminal

  • kitty - GPU based terminal emulator, with a great variety of customization.
  • zsh - My main shell, not too much to say here, but I love it.
  • Starship - Cross-shell prompt in Rust. Can be easily integrated in any terminal and has alot of customization possibilities and easily configurable
  • tmux - Terminal multiplexer. This enables to have multiple windows and sessions on the same terminal window. Can’t live without it anymore for work.
  • zoxide - Smarter cd command. It can remember what you previously has accessed in the system so you don’t need to type the same directory all over again.
  • yazi - A terminal file manager. Very easy to use, has Vim binding so it integrates easily in my workflow when I need to manage files via terminal
  • fzf - Command line fuzzy finder. I use it for my fuzzy search when needed and it integrates with alot of the other terminal based apps that I user like NeoVim and tmux.

Apps

  • Obsidian - A markdown based note taking app. I use it for my personal management and organization, and I can access my vault with NeoVim if I need to check something with the Obsidian.nvim plugin.
  • Figma - For creating UX/UI in my personal projects.
  • Midori - Firefox based browser with more customization options.
  • Photopea - I tried using GIMP but it’s not really intuitive for me. Then I found Photopea that is basically Open Source Photoshop in the browser.
