Resources

Tools

My Thoughts on Tools

I am a big fan of Tool Curation website such as Product Hunt, marketing stacks, etc.
But tools are differnt from other resources, it takes time for people to get familiar with it.
And that is the most important part of using a tool.
Your might not need so many tools most of the time.

Writing Tools

Ulysses $

Ulysess is one of the best writing tool I have used so far. It's easy to use and allows you to seamlessly write across the device.

Boost Note

Boost Note is an open-sourced markdown editor. It has almost indientical features to Ulysses.

Confluence

I use Confluence because our team is using Jira.

Pen and paper

It won't fail you.

Project Management Tools

Trello

Trello is a simple and handy Kanban tool which fulfill most of the needs from my perspective.

Jira

Learn how to group your users and create personas.

Google Sheets

Lorem Ipsum

Design Tools

Figma

Figma is without a doubt the most trending tool in the last two years. It provides really great interface for your to create prototypes rapidily.

Photoshop $

I still like Photoshop since I have to do photo edit form time to time. This is something Figma or other prototyping tools cannot provide.

Illustrator $

I use Confluence because our team is using Jira.

Dev Tools

VS Code

Ulysess is one of the best writing tool I have used so far. It's easy to use and allows you to seamlessly write across the device.

WordPress

I use Confluence because our team is using Jira.

iTerm 2

Understnading commang line is never a must for product managers. However, I find it's a huge performance boost to understand command line tools.
