Uses

MacBook Pro 16″, M-series

Primary machine for Xcode builds and everything else.

Mac mini, M-series

Always-on build machine and secondary display host.

iPhone & iPad, current-gen

Daily-driver test devices, alongside an older-generation iPhone kept specifically for performance testing.

Studio Display

Single large external display — I prefer one big canvas over multiple monitors.

Xcode

For everything Apple-platform — Instruments is where most performance work actually happens.

Zed / VS Code

For everything outside the Apple ecosystem — this site, scripts, and documentation.

Warp

Terminal, mostly for the command palette and workflow blocks.

Tuist

Project generation for larger, modular Swift codebases.

Figma

Interface design and the occasional prototype, a habit from my design years.

Linear

Issue tracking — for client work and for Momena.

Notion

Notes, specs, and this site's content drafts before they become MDX.

Fastlane + GitHub Actions

CI/CD for TestFlight builds and App Store releases.

Git worktrees

For working on multiple branches of a large codebase without constant stashing.

Obsidian

A personal, local-only knowledge base — appropriately, encrypted at rest.

Apple's WWDC session archive

The highest-signal source for anything platform-related, every year.

Designing Data-Intensive Applications

Still the book I recommend most to engineers moving into architecture.

Don't Make Me Think

The book that shaped how I think about interaction design, long before I could code.
