I often get messages asking about specific pieces of software or hardware I use. This not a static page, it's a living document with everything that I'm using nowadays.

Hacking Tools

Coding

  • VSCode - I moved to VSCode like everybody else.
  • Dracula - This is my theme on VSCode
  • Fira Code - I absolutely love this monospaced font because of all the ligatures.

Terminal

  • Hyper - Performance could be better, but I enjoy using this since it's made with JavaScript.
  • Oh My ZSH - A collection of ZSH plugins that you install once and you're ready to go.
  • Fig - Super cool app that adds VSCode-style autocomplete to your existing terminal

Apps

  • BitWarden - The best open source password manager
  • Notion - My personal OS with all the notes from all my projects.
  • TunnelBear - Wonderful VPN app that I use to access content from other countries.
  • Brave - The best browser.

Services

  • Cloudflare - The DNS service I use with all my domains. Amazing product.
  • Firebase - A no-brainer database and auth solution for side projects.
  • Google Domains - I buy and renew all my domains here.
  • Kayak - This makes it easier to find flight itineraries and share them with family.
  • Vercel - Here is where I host all my websites. By far the best developer experience.

Finance

  • Nubank - My favorite bank platform.
  • Coinbase - I'm not obsessed with crypto. My portfolio is made of ETH, BTC, DOT, DOGE, and SHIB.

Reading

  • Kindle 10a - I particularly like this device since it has built-in lights and physical buttons.
  • Audible - The perfect choice to listen to a book while running outside.
