Organize

I organize my work using, GTD mainly using Inbox, Tasks (TODO and NEXT), Daily and Weekly notes with Taskwarrior.

To follow external timelines I sometimes use calendar events, but it’s secondary task planner.

To connect with colleagues I use IM and email clients.

In my work significantly help my development environment, backup plan and daily maintenance, with attention to computer security practices.

Currently, I’m working now as a full-stack software engineer in a small company (remote, full-stack position, but moving into backend position).

I also use various software.
