Using open source software to build open source software
As well as using free and open source software for my homelab, I develop software applications for clients using open source software, such as PHP, Drupal, Symfony and Sculpin.
I also use open source software to do this.
I use NixOS as the operating system on my laptop.
I use Alacritty as my terminal emulator and tmux as a terminal multiplexer to have different sessions, windows and tabs for each project.
I write my code in Neovim and use various additional plugins.
I use Git for source control and tools like PHPStan, PHPUnit and Pest to run checks on my code.
I use Nix and devenv to run the applications locally and host them on Linux servers running Nginx.
I also use OBS, Kdenlive and GIMP to record and edit my content, which are all also open source projects.
I run an open source business, using open source tools and projects and contribute to and maintain my own open source software projects.
