Uses

The tools I reach for most. A /uses page, in the tradition of the genre. This changes slowly; I'll keep it current.

Editor & shell

• VS Code, with a quiet theme and as few extensions as I can get away with.
• Claude Code in the terminal for the heavier lifting.
• zsh on macOS.
• git for everything worth keeping.

Desk

• A MacBook Pro — my main machine for work and writing.
• No external monitor because I get distracted easily.
• A paper notebook, always within reach.

Writing & thinking

• Plain text and Markdown for drafts.
• This site, for anything that's ready to leave the notebook.

Inspired by Wes Bos and the many others who keep one of these.
