Tools I Use
Tools, software and programming languages I use most often.
Tools to help you choose
Some places you can you go to get more information about tools you may want to consider for your next project. Remember to be objective and use decision making frameworks to guide your decision. Every tool has it‘s pro‘s and con‘s.
The TIOBE Programming Community index is an indicator of the popularity of programming languages. The index is updated once a month.
Decision Matrix Analysis is a useful technique to use for making a decision. It‘s particularly powerful where you have a number of good alternatives to choose from, and many different factors to take into account.
Easily map out which open source & SaaS solutions are being used across your engineering teams, why they’re being used, and who someone should talk to about each technology.
This page is not meant to be an exhaustive list of things I use and rather a list of things I have used recently or enjoy using the most. These technologies, methods and software serves me well and gets the job done. I work with a lot more stuff and sometimes it is a "once off". What is important is to understand the base principals, read the documentation, be part of the community and know how to search for information or solutions in a industry which changes faster than any other in human history.
This leads me to the cliché of, "use the appropriate tools for the problem you are trying to solve". There is nothing more true. No situation will call for the same set of tools, methods or vendors. I have not recently walked into a company where their set of tools, believes, values and culture is the same as another’s.
