My Developer Toolbox

A practical list of AI tools, developer utilities, and platforms that I rely on every day.

Over time, I’ve experimented with many tools, but these are the ones that have stuck in my daily workflow.
I’ve grouped them into categories for clarity.

AI Tools (powered by machine learning/AI)

  1. ChatGPT (GPT-4.1 Model) – conversational AI assistant I use for coding, documentation, and brainstorming.
  2. GitHub Copilot – AI code completion inside my editor.
  3. DeepL – AI-powered translation that helps me with Japanese ↔ English.

Developer Tools

  1. BeyondCompare – for file and folder comparison.
  2. VS Code – my lightweight editor for front-end work and quick experiments.
  3. Spring Tool Suite (STS) – my go-to IDE for Java + Spring Boot projects.
  4. Postman – essential for testing APIs.

Infrastructure & DevOps Platforms

  1. GitHub – code hosting, version control, and collaboration.
  2. Cloudflare – deployment, DNS, CDN, and site protection for my blog.

Project & Task Management

  1. Redmine – project management and issue tracking.

Together, these tools form the backbone of my workflow from writing code, testing, and managing projects, to deploying apps and translating content when needed.
