Hello all,

I’ve recently gotten a MacBook pro at work. In the past I’ve mainly used Linux, so the switch isn’t super drastic. I’m mainly getting used to the shortcuts. My work mainly involves DevOps related work.

Things I’ve installed so far ( besides standard things like an IDE ):

  • neovim
  • brew
  • rectangle
  • jq / uw
  • docker desktop
  • iterm2

I have some coworkers excited about Alfred, which I have installed, but haven’t really used yet. Looks like an enhanced spotlight?

Any apps/tools you can recommend which makes your life easier on Macs? Hidden productivity gems?

    Bartender. Menu bar manager.

    aText. Text shortcut expander. I use the pi symbol to prefix my shortcuts (Opt-p).

    eMacs shortcuts work in the GUI, btw.

    I’ll try to remember to add more when I get home.
