Rectangle
Open-source Mac window manager. Keyboard shortcuts and snap zones to tile, maximise, and arrange windows. Replaced Spectacle for me - free and actively maintained.
Rectangle is an open-source window management tool for macOS. It provides keyboard shortcuts and snap zones for tiling, maximising, and arranging windows across your screen.
I use Rectangle constantly throughout the day to manage my workspace. Quick keyboard shortcuts to snap windows to halves, thirds, or corners means I rarely need to manually drag and resize. It's the kind of tool that becomes invisible once you've set it up - you just use the shortcuts without thinking.
Rectangle replaced Spectacle for me when that project stopped being maintained. It's free, open-source, and actively developed. The configuration is minimal - set your preferred shortcuts once and you're done.

Voice-to-text that actually works for code. Handles camelCase, acronyms, and dev jargon. I use it for docs, notes, and long-form writing when typing is slow.
Obsidian
Markdown-based note-taking with local-first storage and a graph view. My second brain for projects, meeting notes, and knowledge bases that link together.

Modern terminal with AI, blocks, and a polished UX. Better autocomplete, command palette, and split panes. Replaced iTerm as my default shell.
