πŸŽ„ Advent of Donations - Day 24 πŸŽ„

It's the final day of Advent of Donations and today I've selected something special! I'm sponsoring the Vim text editor because the Vim project uses most of their donations to support the Kibaale Children’s Centre in Uganda. I can't think of a better way to conclude Advent of Donations then donating to a higher cause like this. Also I'm going to double today's donation to $100.

Merry Christmas!

πŸŽ„ Advent of Donations - Day 23 πŸŽ„

On day 23 I'm sponsoring lazygit! It's a TUI application in the spirit of Fork or SourceTree but runs fully in the terminal. I makes working with git repositories an absolute joy.

As we're getting closer to the end of Advent of Donations, I'm sponsoring another tool that I've been using since forever. It's tldr, the community driven cheatsheets for console commands. Another incredibly helpful tool from my shell toolbox.

It's day 19, Advent of Donations is almost over. Today's donation of $50 go to @astro, the web framework for content-driven websites. Since the beginning of the year I've built three websites using Astro, including my blog. I really love the flexibility and all the integrations.

πŸŽ„ Advent of Donations - Day 17 πŸŽ„

On day 17 I'm sponsoring another tool that's part of my workflow to navigate the terminal and getting directly to editing in NeoVim: fzf. It offers a fuzzy command line search and I use it as part of an alias to open the desired file form my project directory in NeoVim.

On day 16 we have another pic from the tool stack I use in my home lab: Restic the free and open source backup solution. I use it to create incremental backup and store them in my self-hosted minIO instances. It's again one of those tool that just does its job without getting in your way.
