I run OS X. On the web development side of things, I use Django for my job and some of my more complicated personal projects and Hyde to generate a couple of smaller ones. ## Basic Stuff - Terminal for a command line - zsh and oh-my-zsh for a shell, with a whole lot of personal customizations (especially the prompt) - Quicksilver to save my sanity - homebrew to install various things - pianobar and iTunes to play music (I'm also looking at dhun now though) - Visor to keep pianobar out of the way but easy to reach - Dropbox to sync some stuff between machines - Time Machine for backing up ## Writing Code - TextMate for editing anything but CSS - CSSEdit for wrangling CSS - Fluid instances for previewing - Firefox to check how stuff works with Gecko - Pixelmator to make/edit some very basic graphics (I'm not a designer) ## Handling Code - Mercurial (just the CLI) with BitBucket and/or Codebasehq for version control - Git and GitHub to create git mirrors of some things - t and/or BitBucket/Codebasehq's issue tracker to keep track of quick tasks - Transmit for the rare, rare occasion where I need to SFTP something somewhere - Fabric for automating deployments and other small tasks ## Communicating - Fever to manage my heaping pile of RSS feeds - Tweetie, Adium, Mail.app to stay in touch with people - Colloquy for IRC - Skype for voice/video calls and screen sharing
