  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS

    A fork of Git containing Windows-specific patches. (by git-for-windows)

    Modern software development would be impossible without version control solutions like Git, and online repository tools like GitHub. While it's necessary that you need to learn Git, you may wind up on a team that uses Bitbucket or Gitlab, but if you know any one of these, learning one of the others shouldn't be an issue.

  • Puts Debuggerer

    Ruby library for improved puts debugging, automatically displaying bonus useful information such as source line number and source code.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Visual Studio Code

    Visual Studio Code

    We have an embarrassment of riches when it comes to helpful tooling, and code editors/IDEs are no exception. You'll have a lot to choose from here, but I would strongly recommend Visual Studio Code. Feature-rich, customizable, open-source: there's good reason that VSCode is currently the 800lb gorilla in web development editors.
