My Tech Stack & Tools
I get asked a lot about the things I use to build software, stay productive, or buy to fool myself into thinking I'm being productive when I'm really just procrastinating. Here's a curated list of my favorite tools and tech.
13" MacBook M1 Air, 16GB RAM (2021)โ
RISC FTW. I love this machine. It's fast, silent, lightweight, and has incredible battery life. Perfect for coding on the go.
AMD Ryzen 9 + RTX A6000โ
My ML workstation for training models. 48GB VRAM makes a huge difference when working with large neural networks.
12.9 inch iPad Proโ
I use this for reading research papers, taking notes with Apple Pencil, and as a secondary display while traveling with Sidecar.
MSI GS66 Stealthโ
My Linux machine running Ubuntu. I use this as my daily driver for most development work and testing.
LG 34" UltraWide Monitorโ
The extra screen real estate is perfect for having code, documentation, and browser all visible at once.
Logitech MX Master 3โ
The perfect mouse with customizable buttons and excellent ergonomics. The horizontal scroll wheel is a game-changer.
VS Codeโ
My primary code editor. Extensions I can't live without: GitHub Copilot, Vim, Python, ESLint, and Tailwind CSS IntelliSense.
Cursorโ
My AI-powered code editor of choice. Combines VS Code's extensibility with integrated GitHub Copilot capabilities for lightning-fast development. The built-in chat interface and contextual completions have dramatically improved my workflow.
Dockerโ
I containerize everything. Makes development environments consistent and deployment much simpler.
Byobuโ
Terminal multiplexer that makes managing multiple terminal sessions a breeze. Built on tmux with sensible defaults.

Manage GitHub PRs, issues, and repositories right from the terminal. A huge workflow improvement.
Deskflowโ
Lifesaver for my workflow. I use it to share my mouse and keyboard between my Mac and Linux machines seamlessly.
Claude Codeโ
Anthropic's CLI coding assistant. Exceptional at understanding complex codebases and providing thoughtful, contextual suggestions.
OpenCodeโ
Open-source AI coding assistant that runs locally. Great for privacy-conscious development and offline work.
Windsurfโ
AI-powered IDE from Codeium. Fast completions and excellent multi-file editing capabilities for large refactors.
Wisprflowโ
Voice-to-text for developers. Dictate code, comments, and documentation naturally. Great for reducing RSI.
Obsidianโ
My second brain. I use it for note-taking, knowledge management, and connecting ideas with bidirectional links.
Notionโ
For collaborative work and project management. The database features are excellent for tracking projects.
Zen Browserโ
Privacy-focused Firefox fork with beautiful UI and excellent tab management. Clean, fast, and respects your privacy.
