My Everyday Toolkit
Inspired by Uses This, a look at the tools that help me think, design, and ship!
SOFTWARE
Design
Figma: Where 97% of my ideas are born, iterated, and rage-quit.
Figma Make: Natural language to production-ready UI. The blank canvas problem is solved.
FigJam: Sticky notes, doodles, chaos, just how I like it.
Claude Code: Describe a page, get the full build. No code written by hand.
Cursor: AI-native code editor. Helps me prototype faster than I can sketch.
Stitch: Speak to a canvas, get design directions. Free and fast.
Antigravity: Design to production-ready code, directly from Figma.
Photoshop and Illustrator: For the occasional pixel nostalgia.
Zeplin: No more "Where's the padding?" convos.
Font Picker: For the times I yell, "What's that font?"
Contrast: Helping me not design for vampires. Accessibility FTW.
Editing
DaVinci Resolve: My no-nonsense editor for clean & reliable cuts.
Insta360 Studio: For bending reality (and 360° footage) into shape.
Loom: Because sometimes showing > telling > 37 Slack messages.
iMovie: My fallback editor for quick cuts and classic fades.
Productivity
Raycast: Spotlight’s cooler cousin with superpowers.
BrainFM: Focus in a tab, turns chaos into a flow state.
PomoFocus: Keeps me in the zone… for 25 minutes at a time.
Notion: My second brain that actually remembers things.
Utility
Perplexity: When Google feels slow & GPT feels chatty.
Slack: Where team banter and deep work collide.
Numi: A calculator that speaks human. Finally!
Grammarly: My grammar BFF who never sleeps.
HARDWARE
Computing
Apple MacBook Air M2 13": My daily driver. Fast, light, and always game.
Apple MacBook Pro i7 15": The old tank that still refuses to retire.
Apple iPad 9: For sketches, scribbles, and snack browsing.
Apple iPhone 15: My everyday pocket sidekick.
Nokia 3.1 Plus: My Android lab rat for app testing.
Peripheral
LG Ultrafine 27" 4K sRGB 99%: Crisp, color-accurate, and pixel perfect!
Apple Magic Trackpad: Glides like a dream. No mouse needed.
Apple Magic Keyboard: Where ideas (and typos) are born.
Apple Pencil: Scribbles, doodles, and “aha!” moments.
Apple AirPods 2: For deep focus and awkward dance breaks.
BoAt Stone 1200: Big bass for big brain storms.
EarMuffs 28DB: Analog silence. Instant peace.
Tarkan Dock: My laptop’s personal elevator.
ELV Stand: A no-nonsense phone throne.

Weekdays are all about tools. Evenings are for reading and relaxing. Weekends? That’s reserved for motorcycling into places where even the GPS gets nervous!
