+I change what I use _constantly_ in order to find something that feels just right. I wanted to share them here and update them here so when someone asks, I can just point them to this article.
+
+1. Sublime Text - Currently my favourite text editor. Fast, simple, and extensible. Just a joy to use!
+2. Sublime Merge - Honestly one of the fastest and best looking git GUIs around! Awesome for visualizing changes when you have larger code changes.
+3. Ghostty - A Zig based terminal emulator by one of the founders of Hashicorp. Runs great on MacOS and Linux. No windows for those who are into that.
+4. OrbStack - A faster alternative to Docker Desktop that also runs VMs!
+5. Bitwarden - An open-source password manager. Easy to self host with Vaultwarden and with the recent updates, it has SSH Agent support!
+6. iA Writer - A minimalist Markdown editor. For MacOS and Windows only, but really the MacOS version is the most mature. Awesome for focus.
+7. Dataflare - A simple but powerful cross-platform database client. Supports most common databases, including LibSQL which is rare!
+8. Bruno - A simple and powerful API client, similar to Postman. An critical tool to debug API endpoints.
+
+I hope you found this helpful! This will be periodically updated to avoid outdated recommendations.
