\section[Tools I Use]{Tools I Use}\label{why-i-use-terminal-apps}

\textbf{31 July 2023}

\textbf{Category: }Technology

\hypertarget{intro}{%
\subsection[Introduction]{Introduction}\label{intro}}

This post consists of all the hardware, software and other tools I use
on a daily basis for all of my work. \textbf{I am for tools that are
lightweight, minimal and work fast on all types of devices.}

\hypertarget{hardware}{%
\subsection[Hardware]{Hardware}\label{hardware}}

\hypertarget{computer}{%
\subsubsection{Computer}\label{computer}}

I have a custom-built computer that I bought in 2021. This was during
the chip shortage but I needed a PC and could not wait as it was
impacting my work. These are the specs:

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
\item
  Gigabyte RTX 3060 Ti
\item
  \href{https://www.klevv.com/ken/products_details/memory/Klevv_CrasXRGB}{Klevv
  CrasXRGB 32GB DDR4-3600}
\item
  512GB + 1TB SSDs
\end{itemize}

These are my peripherals:

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  \href{https://www.tecware.co/phantom}{Tecware Phantom 104} (modded
  with Akko CS Lavender Purple switches)
\item
  \href{https://www.tecware.co/exo}{Tecware Exo L}
\item
  \href{https://www.msi.com/Monitor/Optix-G242}{MSI Optix G242}
\item
  \href{https://www.jbl.com/gaming-headsets/QUANTUM100.html}{JBL Quantum
  100}
\end{itemize}

\hypertarget{laptop}{%
\subsubsection{Laptop}\label{laptop}}

When I am on the go, I cannot sacrifice any of my work. This is why I
use the HP ENVY x360 laptop. I was going to buy a ThinkPad but I am
using this since it was a gift.

Specs:

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  Intel Core i7-1355U
\item
  32GB DDR5
\item
  512GB SSD
\end{itemize}

\hypertarget{phone}{%
\subsubsection{Phone}\label{phone}}

I use the \href{https://us.nothing.tech/pages/phone-1}{Nothing Phone
(1)}. It is a spectacular phone from a great new brand that keeps
getting better with each update they release. It looks extremely cool
with the glyph lights, which I find to be useful in some cases.

Along with my phone, I use the
\href{https://www.oneplus.com/us/product/oneplus-bullets-wireless-z}{OnePlus
Bullets Wireless Z}

\hypertarget{software}{%
\subsection[Software]{Software}\label{software}}

\hypertarget{basic}{%
\subsubsection{Basic}\label{basic}}

\emph{Operating System (Linux Distribution):}

I use \href{https://archlinux.org/}{Arch Linux}. I love its lightweight
and do-it-yourself nature. It gives me more control over what is
installed on my PC.

\emph{Window Manager:}

I use \href{https://dwm.suckless.org/}{DWM}. It is lightweight and you build it by modifying the source code which makes your build personal. It was made by Suckless. By default, Suckless software is basic and it seems condescending to use the software. However, you make it your own by patching it with the patches on their website. Please check out other suckless utilities \href{https://suckless.org}{here}. You can find my build \href{https://forgejo.sufyaan.cyou/TitanElectrons/dwm}{here}.

\emph{Terminal Emulator:}

I use \href{https://st.suckless.org/}{st}. It is another piece of Suckless software. You can find my build \href{https://forgejo.sufyaan.cyou/TitanElectrons/st}{here}.

\emph{Shell:}

I use \href{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z_shell}{zsh} due to its speed
and features like autocomplete and plugins.

\emph{Text Editor:}

I use \href{https://neovim.io/}{Neovim} for my text editing and will
never switch to another program. It is fast, versatile, extensible and
extremely lightweight. Most importantly, it works extremely well for my
usecase.

\emph{Web Browser:}

I use \href{https://librewolf.net/}{Librewolf} with two profiles. For
more information, \href{https://sufyaan.cyou/browser/}{view my post on
my browser setup}.

\emph{Password Manager:}

I use \href{https://keepass.info/}{KeePass} with
\href{https://syncthing.net/}{Syncthing}. KeePass is incredibly secure.
Read \href{https://sufyaan.cyou/kpst}{this post} for more information.

\emph{Notes:}

I use \href{https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki}{VimWiki} also with
\href{https://syncthing.net/}{Syncthing}. I use the
\href{https://github.com/gsantner/markor}{Markor} app on my phone to
view the notes. Read \href{vimwiki}{this post} for more information.

\hypertarget{utilities}{%
\subsubsection{Utilities}\label{utilities}}

\emph{File Manager:}

I have \href{https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/thunar}{Thunar} installed
but I do not use it most of the time. I use the terminal for most of my
file management.

\emph{Media Player:}

I use \href{https://mpv.io/}{MPV}, the best media player on the planet.
It is fast, \href{https://sufyaan.cyou/definitions/free-software/}{free
software} and infinitely extensible.

\emph{RSS Reader:}

I use \href{https://newsboat.org/index.html}{Newsboat} since it reduces
the need for me to go to all of my websites separately.

\emph{PDF Viewer:}

\href{https://pwmt.org/projects/zathura/}{Zathura} all the way. I am
never switching to anything else. It is just so fast and simple.

\emph{Image Viewer:}

\href{https://github.com/nsxiv/nsxiv}{nsxiv} is what I use. It is just
like Zathura; fast and efficient.

\hypertarget{production}{%
\subsubsection{Production}\label{production}}

\emph{Recording and Streaming:}

I use FFmpeg to record and encode my screen recordings. I use
\href{https://kdenlive.org/en/}{Kdenlive} to edit my videos. In case of
streaming, I use \href{https://obsproject.com/}{OBS Studio} to stream.

\emph{Writing:}

\href{https://sufyaan.cyou/plaintext}{I write in plaintext formats as
much as possible}. When writing posts or other formatted notes, I use
\href{https://sufyaan.cyou/definitions/markdown}{Markdown (.md)} and I
use \href{https://www.latex-project.org}{LaTeX} for documents.

\emph{Image Editing:}

This is perhaps the only non-free software I use. I use
\href{https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop.html}{Adobe Photoshop}

\hypertarget{conclusion}{%
\subsection[Conclusion]{Conclusion}\label{conclusion}}

These are all of the tools I use. They may change in the future, but
there is a low chance of that happening since I have gotten used to all
of these amazing tools.
