During my entire life (32 years) I used windows and linux machines. Now I bought my first mac book and I would like to know what tools is nice to have to make my work easy.

I am a developer ruby on rails and use vscode, also I use the terminal a lot and the default terminal is not that great. Also I miss notepad++

Any sugestions?

Thank You

Rectangle - for arranging windows
Warp Terminal - a souped up terminal
Maccy - clipboard manager
Homebrew - installing packages
Sublime - notepad++ equivalent
Insomnia - api request manager like Postman

Which improvments does Insomnia has over the Postman? Do you know if the license allows comercial use? Thanks.

I found postman using insane amounts of RAM a few times and some of my coworkers had switched and it’s been pretty nice so far. Pretty much the same feature set without being a RAM hog.
