As a data science intern, i use:

- Python on Pycharm for crawling, cleaning, and database related stuff.

- Jupyter lab for analyzing, visualizing, and reporting insights.

- Bitbucket for personal private projects.

- Gitlab for company related projects.

Windows / Visual Studio for creating a web app and supporting services and Azure for hosting it. Git/Github for source control. Slack for communication. Octopus Deploy for CD. VSTS for CI.

Home office. Plenty of space, some nice bookshelves, view across open fields when I want to test my eyes, and quiet.

(Also a nice big monitor, and a “standing desk” built out of scrap but nice and solid).

This makes far more difference than the exact tools I’m using on a given project.

You asked "my best", so, at home:

- Xubuntu 18.04 on older i7 with 16Gb RAM and SSD, with two fullHD monitors.

- Libreoffice and Modelio.org for the "architecture" tasks

- IntelliJ Ultimate with several plugins for all server-side jvm development

- postgresql for sql related needs

- couple of zshells on multitabbed multipanelled Terminator

- Firefox quantum with uBlock Origin for the browsing needs

- bitbucket for source control

- noise cancelling headphones.

( but at the day job, it's a buggy windows 10 with eclipse on a i5, single HD 1366x768 monitor, 8Gb RAM, HDD... the thing reboots for no reason twice a day. )

Are you talking tech stack? I'm a big fan of Spring Boot 2 with Kotlin for backends and React with SSR via next.js for client-side.

Why would you subject yourself to that?
