Tools We LoveCopperEgg January 2014

Gitbox & GitHub

• GitHub allows us to collaborate on our code

• Gitbox is a quick and dirty GUI for

managing different Git repos

• Gitbox has a simple, easy-to-use UI

2

CloudApp

• Screenshots and

captures done right

• Automagically creates

links to share any type

of file

• Perfect for sharing

screenshots of code

and scripts

3

Kaleidoscope

• Spot the differences in code quickly and easily

• Merge Git changes in seconds

• Hook Gitbox to Kaleidoscope to crank out diffs

4

Sublime Text 2

• The text editor for editor junkies

• Everything you need – split views, context highlighting, symbol finding, etc

• Slick UI, extraordinary features, and amazing performance

5

YAJL

• Installs two tools we can’t live without:

json_reformat and json verify

• These reformat compacted json, make it

pretty, and verify for correctness

6

Curl & HTTP Client

• Super easy client for doing

POST, GET, PUT, and other API calls

• Slick GUI for saving queries

• Much easier to use than command line curl
