My current stack and how it’s configured
I’ve gone through a fair bit of iteration to arrive at my current “technology stack”, by which I mean the set of hardware and software I use to do everything from academics and research to hobbies.
My current stack is:
- Daily driver: base model 2020 M1 MacBook Air
- Browser: Firefox on macOS
- Occasionally I’ll use eww for docs
- Operating system: macOS Ventura, with guix system running inside qemu
- qemu installed using homebrew via the homebrew-qemu-virgl tap which I maintain
- See Guix system on qemu on macos for how I set this up
- Also see guix configuration.
- Inside guix my stack is:
- Window manager: sway (see sway configuration)
- Text editor: emacs (see emacs configuration)
- Email: mbsync + mu4e (see mbsync configuration)
