  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • nvm

    Node Version Manager - POSIX-compliant bash script to manage multiple active node.js versions

  • Node Version Manager or NVM helps you to use different versions of Node for different projects I don't work on projects that require a very specific version of node but it makes updating node easier so I have it installed.

  • obsidian-releases

    Community plugins list, theme list, and releases of Obsidian.

  • I use Obsidian for taking notes and writing posts. I have tried Notion, and Evernote in the past. Evernote feels kind of bloated and tailored for more advanced use cases and Notion is more tailored for teams and people who need very customized workflows, I just need a Markdown-based editor and cloud syncing. I have also tried Simplenote it was really good but there were two problems (1) it didn't support uploading images (2) It doesn't support folders so everything was flat and very hard to find.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • insomnia

    The open-source, cross-platform API client for GraphQL, REST, WebSockets, SSE and gRPC. With Cloud, Local and Git storage.

  • Insomnia is a testing tool for graphql and REST APIs. I use it for testing our backend and sometimes external 3rd party APIs

  • Bitwarden

    The core infrastructure backend (API, database, Docker, etc). (by bitwarden)

  • Bitwarden is my password manager of choice. I'm still on the free plan and I don't have any complaints. I don't like the UI that much but on the functionality side of things it's good enough, It gives everything you might need from your password managers even in the free plan.
