These are the tools I use at home and at work.
Software
I have used a Mac for over 20 years now as my computer of choice for development and design. For server environments I am a fan of Ubuntu probably due to familiarity more than anything else.
- I initially designed this web site in Figma, a tool that I use at Genius Division to design apps, web sites, interfaces etc.
- For PHP development, I use PHPStorm.
- Tyme: I (try and) track my time so I can better analyse it.
Photography
I’ve been trying to expand my kit throughout the years I've recently sold all my gear and replaced it with a Leica Q2. I used to post to Flickr but would like a self-hosted solution so I don’t have to rely on a third party and more importantly own my own content. Check out the photos section on this website.
- Leica Q2
- iPhone 16 Pro when out and about.
Kit
- M3 MacBook Air 15 inch + dual external monitors.
- iPad Pro 11 inch.
This website
- The original version of this site was built on Laravel + Filament. I wanted to be able to upload things on the go so I rebuilt it on Laravel with Filament to handle editing etc.
- Codebase hosted on Bitbucket.
- Theme cobbled together using Tailwind.
I'm hosting this site on an old, Model B Raspberry Pi at Genius Division's office. I'm currently not doing this since I moved my site to Laravel but plan on getting it back on a Pi soon.
- Titles are set in Decimal.
