Hello all,

I’ve recently gotten a MacBook pro at work. In the past I’ve mainly used Linux, so the switch isn’t super drastic. I’m mainly getting used to the shortcuts. My work mainly involves DevOps related work.

Things I’ve installed so far ( besides standard things like an IDE ):

  • neovim
  • brew
  • rectangle
  • jq / uw
  • docker desktop
  • iterm2

I have some coworkers excited about Alfred, which I have installed, but haven’t really used yet. Looks like an enhanced spotlight?

Any apps/tools you can recommend which makes your life easier on Macs? Hidden productivity gems?

I would definitely recommend Raycast over Alfred. I came from Alfred and never looked back. Recast is a very powerful application and it’s extensible. It’s basically like a swiss aemu knife of applications and it’s one of the first things I install on macOS.
