Setup

Gear, hardware, and dev environment.

Desk

The main workstation. Fast enough for local dev, hot reload in seconds, battery life outlasts most coffee runs.

Cherry MX Brown switches.

Ergonomic, great scroll wheel.

4K for extended coding sessions.

My editor of choice for rapid code review and small edits. IntelliJ for larger projects. VS Code when the team requires it.

For final QA — no developer tools is the best test.

For debugging with dev tools and performance profiling.

For deep work and remote calls.

This list evolves. I don't chase new gear — when something works, I keep using it until something fundamentally better comes along.
