My setup
My office is wherever I am — I'm a freelance developer, so it's just me and my gear. The centerpiece is a custom-built desk made from an old tree trunk, which I love a little too much.
On the desk sits a 34" Dell U3419 ultrawide, though I'm currently on the hunt for a replacement. Everything runs through a CalDigit TS4 dock, feeding into my main machine — a Mac Mini M1 with 16GB RAM and 2TB SSD. It's getting on in years but still earns its place.
Music is on all day, no exceptions. A pair of Edifier R1280DBs take care of that — nothing fancy, but they do the job well.
For input I've settled on the Logitech MX Keys S and the Logitech MX Master 3 mouse. Solid combo, no complaints.
In my pocket: an iPhone 15 Pro
When I'm away from the desk — or just wandering around the house — I've got a MacBook Air M4 in space gray (16GB / 512GB) and a pair of AirPods Pro 2 in my ears.
Music around our house is wrapped in a lot of Sonos speakers.
All wired and wireless network is wrapped in Unifi AP's, Switches and Cloud Gateway Max to the 1gbit/1gbit fiber connection
My projects
I work primary as a developer for companies needing a lot of PHP / Symfony / Drupal development, but in my sparetime i love doing my own stuff.
Right now i'm putting a lot of time into my little bookmark manager, that i built to replace others that i dont liked too much. Go check it out on mymarks.net
