Mac Setup

A foreword

I am a mac app enthusiast who really enjoys trying new apps to see what best fits into my workflow. This originally started as, and still remains a reference for me when I setup a new computer, but I hope this helps others find what they need without having to try everything. For the apps listed below, I was not compensated in any way. These are just the apps I use on a daily basis or use to use in the past. I try to prefer free solutions but occassionally I end up coming across a nice deal for a paid app which I can purchase at a price that is affordable. I try to avoid subscriptions unless I absolutely have to. I think the most expensive app I have purchased is Alfred.

Anyone who wants can buy me a 📘️ or 🍺️ or app on https://www.buymeacoffee.com/viralshah. I plan on creating a complete website to showcase these in the near future and try out new apps that I hear about.
