What I use.

16 GB · plenty for Astro builds and a couple of Postgres containers

27" 4K, USB-C single-cable docking. Worth every euro.

Wireless, hot-swap, with KTT Strawberry switches.

Quiet click, perfect side scroll for wide spreadsheets.

Closed-back, neutral. The only headphones I’ve kept for 4+ years.

Default, with Claude Code in the terminal pane for pair programming.

Fast, native, GPU-accelerated. Replaced iTerm.

Minimal prompt, fast cold start.

Launcher, clipboard manager, snippet expansion, window manager.

For content sites — this one runs on it.

When the project needs server components or aggressive SSR.

Strict mode, always. End-to-end.

Hosted on Neon or Supabase depending on the client.

Schema-first, type-safe, no surprises.

Pairs well with design tokens and CSS variables.

For wireframes, hi-fi mocks, and design tokens.

Project management that doesn’t hate developers.

Open-source alternative I reach for on FOSS-leaning clients.

Secrets, SSH keys, shared vaults with clients.

Email that respects you. Custom domains, no ads.

Privacy-friendly analytics, no cookies, GDPR-clean.

For when a Docker host beats a serverless invoice.
