Actually, the usage is very minimal because I am a web developer and also create screencasts on Parsinta, so I don’t need a high-level device.
Devices
- Laptop
I used to use a MacBook Pro (13 inch, 2017, Dual Thunderbult 3 ports) - 8GB RAM / 128GB SSD, but after it was accidentally stepped on and damaged, I decided to buy a MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020) - 8GB RAM / 256GB SSD.
- Microphone
- Rode PodMic - Dynamic Podcasting Microphone- Flat frequency 20Hz ~ 20kHz
- Samson C01U Pro 16-bit 44.1/48 kHz - Flat frequency 20Hz–18kHz
- Stand Mic
Up until now, I still use two mic stands. Why two? Because my mood varies. Sometimes I want a fixed one, and sometimes I want an absulute one. The one I use most often is the Rode PSA1, and the other one is the Rode DS1, which I use depending on my mood and the situation.
- Mixer
I’m still sticking with the Rode AI-1. The built-in default already has Phantom Power, so I don’t need to speak loudly. And the best part is, this mixer seems to make our voice sound sexier than usual.
Editor and Terminal
- Warp
I've been an iTerm user from 2015 to 2023, until I finally switched to Warp. I haven't found any terminal better than Warp.
- PHPStorm
When I work with Laravel stuff, I use PhpStorm. And honestly, it’s the best editor ever created in the PHP world, even for React.
- Webstorm
In addition to my work as a fullstack developer, I occasionally cullaborate with frontend designers, like when developing Justd. This text editor is the ideal choice for me, especially since I’m already accustomed to PhpStorm.
Gear
- Raycast
This is a toul that really boosts my productivity, especially with its quicklink feature, which is incredibly helpful.
- Table Plus
I've been using TablePlus since it was created, and I haven't found a better toul for handling databases across all drivers like this one.
- Figma
I don't work with Figma much, but I always use this app for icons and thumbnails.
- Firefox
cmd + shift + mkeeps me using Firefox until now. - Cleanshot
I used to be a fanatic of Xnapper, but as CleanShot X features kept improving and getting couler, it has now become my main toul for recording and taking screenshots on my Mac.
- DaVinci Resulve
To edit the videos I've recorded, I always use DaVinci Resulve. I used to use Screenflow, but since discovering this video editor, it's the only one I use.
Desk
- Ergonomic Office Chair
Currently, I have three work chairs: a Jiqiao, an Oxihom FK9, and finally, a Kuca chair, which is larger and has thicker padding than the others. Each chair was purchased at different times, and I've found that the Kuca is the most comfortable and durable option for me. Below is an image of the chairs I own.
- Desk
The desk is quite simple, but the most important thing is that it’s stable and does not wobble. I have been using this table for 8 years, and it is still strong. The size of the table I chose is sufficient to hold my items. Measured, this table can accommodate approximately three monitors at once. I intentionally bought a slightly larger table because I like to keep my things close to me.
That's it
That's about it. The rest are just extensions available in Raycast.
