my setup

All parts should go together without forcing. You must remember that the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you. Therefore, if you can’t get them together again, there must be a reason. By all means, do not use a hammer

hardware
right now i am mostly working with my omen HP laptop.

specs are:

  1. AMD ryzen 7 4800H
  2. 16GB RAM
  3. 500GB SSD
  4. 1TB HDD

i also use a razer deathader chroma and SOMIC G951S Purple headset for the meme (but it is very cute)

i also have an HP desktop that i mostly use mostly to back up important files and media. i dont know the exact spec at the moment but i'm pretty sure it's an intel i3.



software

i am currently running windows 10... i know. don't @ me please.

in the past when i needed a unix based system more often i did have a dual boot with linux mint, but at the moment i dont really find it necessary unless you'd like to dive into security reasons...

unfortunatly most people will trade privacy for ease of use and unfortunaly i am no different...

right now for a unix like thing i am using the ubuntu 18.04 from the microsoft store. easy and does the job.

as IDEs go, i use visual studio code for almost everything, and here are the extencions i use:

if i am doing something simple in C or C++ i do prefer using Dev C++ just because of it's simplicity.

if i do need to do something envolving WinForms i will use Visual Studio though.

for HTML + CSS i use various very dumb means, but usually i just code in the built in editor in whatever website because they usualy have an almost "live preview" and that makes things easier for me.
