Dotfiles

What I actually reach for, day to day. No dotfiles repo to link yet — just the honest stack.

Shell

• bash — no fancy prompt framework, just bash.

Terminal

• iTerm2 on macOS.

Editor

• vim for anything on a remote box — fast edits, config files, no excuses.
• VS Code for actual project work — multi-file editing, extensions, the works.

OS

• macOS as the daily driver.
• Ubuntu on the servers I actually manage.

CLI toolbox

• tmux — sessions that survive a dropped SSH connection are non-negotiable.
• jq — because half of DevOps is just reshaping JSON until it behaves.

Nothing exotic. Boring tools, used a lot, is basically the whole philosophy of this blog.
