Tools
I use a number of tools to get my work done. I also recommend a lot of these tools to my clients:
- Laravel - obvs
- Statamic - the CMS I used to make this site and what everyone should be using already (built on Laravel ofc)
- Sublime Text - yes, I still use it! It's crazy fast for chucking a folder at and writing some code
- PHPStorm - for when I'm working on more complex apps/projects
- Tower - for working with Git - I'm not afraid of the command line, but a GUI makes Git even more fun to work with
- ScreenStudio - for quick screen recordings
- Fathom Analytics - the best privacy-protecting alternative to Google Analytics
- Digital Ocean - good, solid virtual servers
- Laravel Forge - how I manage those servers
- OhDear - excellent uptime monitoring
- Mailcoach - straightforward email campaigns and transactional email management
- TablePlus - a really nice Mac database client
- Bunny.net - I mainly use Bunny for DNS only right now
- Netlify - where this site is hosted
