Productivitiy Tools
You can find the productivity tools/applications that I use everyday.
Ghostty / Free / ghostty.org
Ghostty is a modern, high-performance terminal emulator focused on speed and efficiency. It offers a clean interface with features like GPU acceleration, true color support, and a configurable experience for developers who spend significant time in the command line. If you love a fast, visually crisp terminal and flexible theming, this is one to try.
Obsidian / Free / obsidian.md
Obsidian is a powerful knowledge management application that transforms how you organize your thoughts and ideas. It’s based on plain Markdown files and enables backlinking, rich graph views, and a thriving plugin ecosystem—perfect for building a personal knowledge base or "second brain".
Raycast / Free / raycast.com
Raycast is an ultra-fast launcher for macOS built for power users. Beyond launching apps, it lets you search docs, run scripts, navigate files, and integrate with developer tools—effectively replacing and upgrading Spotlight, with custom workflows and extensions galore.
CleanShot X / Paid / cleanshot.com
The average tech people take 10 screenshots per day in average. Native macOS screenshot feature is good, but you should try CleanShot X—it’s a super app that lets you screenshot, annotate images, and record short screen videos. With handy cloud uploads and scrolling capture, it turns screen capture into a productivity superpower.
BetterTouchTool / Paid / folivora.ai
I started to tweak my Macs back in 2009 and BetterTouchTool is one of the applications that I used continuously since then. Thanks to lots of customization that I make over the years, I struggle to use somebody else's Mac 😅. It enables deep configuration for trackpads, keyboards, and mice—turn gestures and shortcuts into anything your workflow demands.
Setapp / Paid / setapp.com
I am using Setapp since they launched their product. You can get most of the applications listed above by getting a Setapp membership. It’s a subscription service offering access to hundreds of premium macOS (and now iOS) apps, making it a must-have for anyone who likes to experiment with top-tier, ad-free tools without thinking about individual licenses.
Figma / Free / figma.com
No introductions needed. Figma is the gold standard for UI, UX, and product design collaboration—real-time, cloud-based, and deeply integrated with design-to-dev workflows.
Zen Browser / Free / zen-browser.app
Zen Browser is a minimalist web browser designed to reduce distractions and create a more focused browsing experience. Ideal for writing, research, or any time deep focus is valued over endless tabs and notifications.
Perplexity / Free & Paid / perplexity.ai
Perplexity is an AI-powered answer engine that delivers fast, cited, and nuanced answers to nearly any tech, research, or general question. It excels as a research companion, code assistant, or workflow optimizer—especially for developers, knowledge workers, or anyone who wants AI-assisted productivity with transparency and trusted sources.
