My current development setup

  • Editor (Webstorm)

    • Syntax Highlighting Base: https://darekkay.com/blog/monokai-theme-intellij/
    • My customised Higlighting: /Documents/macOS/DK Monokai.jar
    • Font: Dank Mono with Ligatures enabled
    • Usually enable: ESLint and Prettier
    • Don't forget to exlude dist folders from indexing (right click on folder in project-structure)

  • Keyboard Settings (Keychron K2)

  • fn + k + c to make function keys behave like functions keys on macOS

  • Keyboard Shortcuts

    • Open things 3 = CMD + SHIFT + 7
    • Open things helper = CMD + SHIFT + 8
    • Launch Raycast = CMD + Space
    • Next Project Window = ⌥ + TAB
    • Previous Project Window ⌥ + SHIFT + TAB
    • Complex Modifications in Karabiner
    • MAP FN + E,S,D,F TO ARROW_UP,ARROW_LEFT,ARROW_DOWN,ARROW_RIGHT json

  • Keyboard Layout

  • Now using EurKEY 1.2 Layout for ANSI Keyboards, because it has much better support for umlauts than traditional US Keyboard layouts.

  • OS Settings

    • Key Repeat = Fast

    • Delay Until Repeat = Short

    • Disable Keyboard Shortcuts -> Input Sources -> Both Options

    • Keyboard -> Press 🌎 key to -> Show Emoji Symbols

    • Disabled ApplePressAndHoldEnabled suggestions because they tend to swallow keyspresses if you type fast defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false (not a problem if you only use apple keyboards)

  • Homebrew

  • TablesPlus (for Redis and PostGresQL)

  • MongoDB Compass
