I'm looking for ways to enhance my workflow as a web developer, and I'd love to hear about the tools and extensions that others find indispensable. Are there any browser add-ons, VS Code plugins, or online tools that you can't go without? I'm curious to learn what helps you improve productivity or streamline your daily development tasks.

Pesticide is a great extension! It allows you to see how elements are placed on the page by outlining them, which is super handy during development.
I've been using tools like Docker, Makefiles, and AI IDEs like Cursor. They've seriously streamlined my workflow and made things a lot easier.
I keep a text file full of random notes that I've gathered through my career. It's handy for quick references and helps me remember important details without needing special apps.
Same here! I start every workday opening my IDE and that notes file. It's a lifesaver.
I find that deep house radio really helps set the mood while I work. Music plays a big role in keeping me focused and relaxed!
+1 on that! I even listen to ADHD focus playlists sometimes, and they really help me concentrate.
For me, it's all about switching up my workspace. I alternate between my office, the kitchen table, and even coffee shops. Changing my environment seems to boost my productivity.
I wish I could do that! I find it tough to stay productive on just one monitor while I'm away from my setup at home.
Totally agree! Settings up the right Cursor can really speed things up. Having a solid rules file has increased our team’s efficiency so much.
