  • OS:
    • Arch Linux or OpenBSD, depending in how I feel
  • Editor:
    • Micro on Linux
    • mg(1) on OpenBSD
  • Plug-ins:
    • Micro has support for a few linters, which is all I really need
    • mg(1), meanwhile, doesn't even have syntax highlighting
  • Terminal:
    • Kitty on Linux
    • XTerm on OpenBSD
  • Shell:
    • Zsh on Linux
    • ksh on OpenBSD
  • Version Control:
    • Git is the only realistic option (though Mercurial and Fossil are nice)
  • Code Hosting:
    • Usually Codeberg
    • I also have sourcehut
    • My Formula Student team uses GitLab
    • My university and another society use GitHub 🤮

I usually licence my work under GPL if it's a large project, or Beerware if it's something smaller (or if it's for internal use in one of my societies).

Any coursework I do, however, gets licenced under BSD-3-clause. For this, GPL would be too restrictive and Beerware would be too informal, and BSD-3-clause is a nice middle-ground (as far as I'm concerned).
