Some of the tools I use on everyday basis.
Software
Obsidian - Where all my thinking happens. I think of it as a mental workshop. Place that gets dirty - lots of unfinished notes, half-thought, what not. It's free. Works with local markdown files, no lock-in, endless flexibility. It is so good that I wanted to pay them something. This website is built from Obsidian notes.
Google Docs - for taking quick daily notes.
Cursor/Antigravity/Claude Code - For all vide coding.
GitHub - Coding repo.
X - Probably the only place on internet to get an info in almost real time. I try to limit my time using it though.
Hardware
Macbook Air - The best laptop.
Vivobarefoot - The best shoes.
Philosophy
I prefer tools that are:
- Simple over feature-rich
- Local-first over cloud-dependent
- Beautifully designed
- Open formats over proprietary lock-in, though I make exception when something is really good.
Most productivity gains come from using fewer tools well, not more tools poorly.
