Lorna Jane started this off with a list of useful apps (Spectacle and Vimium in particular I’d recommend) and I’ve contributed some of the keyboard shortcuts I’ve picked up.

Apple launch Safari “Technology Preview”
Equivalent to Chrome Canary and Firefox Developer Edition. Fortnightly updates. Requires 10.11.4 (El Capitan). New features that interest me: javascript-based clipboard cut and copy (not paste) and improved Content Security Policy support.
What’s encouraging is this may mean Apple are allocating greater resources to Safari development.
Software Recommendations
For developers:
- PhpStorm (IDE for PHP, JS, HTML, CSS and more.)
- Sequel Pro (MySQL GUI)
- SourceTree (Git GUI)
- Dash (documentation browser)
- Reggy (regular expression tester)
For everyone:
- 1Password (password manager – works with all web browsers and iOS)
- coconutBattery (detailed iPhone / Mac battery stats)
- NVAlt (notetaking. Works with SimpleNote web service/iOS app)
