Each year when I do the Advent of Code challenge I use it as an opportunity to learn a new language or tool chain. This year I am writing in Java 17 (I have not used Java since Java 8), along with Eclipse Collections, and using VS Code as my IDE.
Since I have never used Eclipse Collections before, I have installed the API documentation into Dash for macOS, which is an API Documentation Browser and Code Snippet Manager. I have used Dash for a long time, and love the integration with Alfred to quickly lookup documentation for a method/class.
