My setup ❤️

I switched the setup for this specific picture (I forget why), but usually the middle monitor and my laptop are for my main business, usually swiping between code, terminal, and browser for dev and research. My right monitor is for Slack, Spotify, and other spare business and my left monitor is for async communication and calendar stuff (email, Github issues, etc.)

If I were coding all day the one or two monitor setup would be fine—and I can get by with whatever if I need to—but with various types of communications I need to keep up all day I've found it helpful to keep the different things in dedicated areas.
