Choose 1 IDE for coding. Personally I use VSCode.

I even use it for note taking since it can predict whatever it is I type frequently.

Thunderbird to handle all my email accounts. School and personal.

Firefox Quantum and Chromium for browsers, I find I often benefit from both environments for web dev.

I host my own cloud service off a raspberry pi 3, using Nextcloud + DietPi. If it's too much for you to handle right now (I promise it won't be by the time you graduate) just choose any of the ones offered to college students with bonus amounts of storage. Backing up your stuff is a must.

Get a GitHub account, learn how to use it ASAP. You can get a student account for 10 free private repositories here. Back up your CODE! If you mess up badly during a project, you can revert to previous versions so long as you understand how git works. Just watch tutorials off youtube, preferably from Indians. This has saved me HUGE in school.

This is all I've used in my 3 years of community college comp. programming classes. Personally I stick to open source software as best I can. Once you get a grasp of coding, start contributing to open source projects on GitHub and pad your resume with them.

I also use a kobo for reading materials. Download everything I could possibly need on it.


It's not digital minimalism, but... Get a QUALITY laptop bag that will last you throughout your entire time. I recommend Timbuk2. Currently on sale for an unbeatable price. I paid over $100 for mine.

I took my Timbuk2 Spire backpack to the last 2 Origins and found it really useful for a number of reasons.

  • Expandable height. Could fit 2 FFG square box games in that way.

  • breathable back kept my shirt dry

  • has 2 upright compartments inside, one for tablet, one for laptop. I didn't have a laptop but it would be great for your handbook.

  • convenient water bottle mesh on one side

  • waterproof

  • Outside pockets for chargers, etc. Easy to get to.

  • inside zippered organizer

  • daisy chain webbing for hanging anything additional off of

  • sternum strap to keep bag high on shoulders (better for weight distribution and posture)

    and

    wait for it

  • bottle opener on front strap
