full-stack dev

My Minimal Setup

Hardware:

• Macbook Air M2 (2022) 16/256GB - my main workstation
• iPhone 16 128GB - primary phone
• Galaxy S23 - secondary phone
• Acer SA222Q 21.5-inch Full HD IPS Monitor - works as a secondary monitor
• Airpods 2nd Gen - I use this for music and calls
• Samsung 980 Pro 512GB NVMe M.2 SSD - 256GB is not enough, so I use this as an external drive
• ORICO Aluminum M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure - to use the SSD as an external drive

Software:

• vscode - the extension support is amazing
• Xcode - slower than a snail but I have to use it for iOS development
• 𝚋̶𝚛̶𝚊̶𝚟̶𝚎̶ chrome - yea privacy was great, but it became bloated
• spotify - I can't live without music, FYI my 2024 wrapped came out with 100k+ minutes
• discord - for communicating with clients and other developers

Homelab:

• Debian 13 Root Server
• 6vCPU Cores
• 8GB RAM
• 256GB SSD

Most of the software development tools are installed on my vps. I prefer to keep my local machine clean and minimal. When needed, I use to ssh to my vps and do the task such as running a unkown software, building a project, testing a new sdk etc.
