I came across a blog a couple of weeks ago (sadly I forgot who the author was) where the author went into a decent amount of detail on their tools/technology stack.
This included things like what keyboard they use, their laptop, what kind of programming languages they like, etc.
It was very interesting to get a peek into someone else's workflow.
While I didn't steal anything for myself this time, I can easily foresee a future where I gather better tools/workflow from others who share their stack.
So I wrote this post to motivate others to do the same!
The original post just laid the author's stack using normal headings/photos/text sections which was great.
For my own stack though I wanted to make something a little bit more styled, so I put together a little [hugo plugin that renders a visual map of your stack from a yaml file](https://github.com/aselimov/hugo-stack).
You can see an example of mine at <https://alexselimov.com/about>.
Funnily enough, while writing this post I found <https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com/>, which is maybe the most extreme example of this idea.
The author of that blog publicly lists a giant catalog of possessions which is very cool but also probably not for everyone.
So make sure to list the tools you use, so I can steal them to improve myself!
