What I use

Figma

Design

WebStorm

Code editor

While I often use Cursor and other tools, Figma and WebStorm remain my primary tools for UI/UX design and development.

WebStorm is still unmatched for me. It’s fast, feature-rich, and perfect for larger projects at work. I still open Cursor when I need quick prototyping or experiments, but WebStorm keeps me the most productive day to day.

Figma might feel like the obvious choice, but there’s a reason: almost every prototype or idea I explore starts there. It’s flexible, intuitive, and still the smoothest way for me to test and iterate on design ideas.

Things

Linear

Project management

Things is the pinnacle of what a to-do list should be. It's insanely simple yet powerful, keeping me on top of everything. Whether it’s projects or small tasks, everything lives in Things. I highly recommend it.

Most productivity tools that I've mentioned have plenty of competitors that do basically the same thing. But we live in a time where many can build the same apps — what stands out is the design. And these four apps are truly top-notch.

Retro is an incredibly simple way to stay connected with friends while avoiding all the distractions of traditional social media. I highly recommend it. Plus, you can even turn your photos into free posters. I have dozens hanging around my room.
