Programs

These are programs I use, have used, or love the idea of using. Some I have configured extensively, others I run stock. This is not a minimalism flex or a dotfiles tour. It is a practical catalogue of software I would recommend to someone building a Unix workflow from scratch.

If you want to see my hardware, see hardware. If you want to see what I think is harmful, see harmful.
