Setup & Tools
Hardware
I’m an apple user through and through, and hook my Macbook Pro up to a 27" Thunderbolt display while I’m in the office. iPhone 7 and Apple Watch round out my hardware setup.
Development
My text editor of choice is Github’s Atom, and has been since early beta. Panic’s Transmit 4 serves as the perfect FTP client, and I serve sites locally using Laravel Valet.
Terminal
I use iTerm 2 to handle all things terminal, from file management to git and everything in between. I use NPM and Grunt to make my web development life easier.
Design
I’m a long standing user of Adobe Creative Cloud, although I often wish I wasn’t. We're tied-in to Adobe at work right now, so for the time being it’s here to stay.
