Michael Uses

iTerm2 icon

  • VSCodium is my current editor. I made the switch to Visual Studio Code from Atom in 2018, and made the conscious choice to swap to the version with telemetry removed. Before that I used Brackets, Coda and Sublime Text. I wrote my first lines of code with Notepad++ in 2005.
  • Default Dark+ theme, default vs-seti icons.
  • I use iTerm2 for my terminal. I change the font to Fira Code, and font-size to 14.
  • On Linux I use the default PoP!_\OS terminal.
  • I use Zsh as my shell, with the Spaceship Prompt theme.

Sketch App

  • Designs in Sketch. However, I stopped buying updates when they switched to a subscription model. For that reason, I also have Figma.
