Dependency Management

Package Manager / Build Tools

Task Runners

  • I like to work with Grunt, which I use to run watch tasks, compile Sass, minify and uglify CSS and JavaScript code
  • Gulp

Recording

  • I use Screen Studio to record screen and camera simultaneosly
  • Shure MV-7 is the mic of my choice

Browser

  • I like Firefox for troubleshooting and also for the Profiles feature. The organization of the information in the Inspector and in tabs like Network and Storage makes if the best browser to work as a developer
  • The Responsive mode also works great and I see no bugs, which often happens in some other browsers

Planning / Organization

  • MindMeister is a great tool to create MindMaps. I use it to write down everything about the project, from general guidelines to plugins and other relevant aspects
  • After that, I use Asana to execute the project goals and to take notes so I don’t forget anything. I sometimes share it with customers so he may see how the project is flowing
