For work: I have to use a underpowered HP Elitebook from 2015 (i5, 8Gb RAM, 128GB SSD) running Windows 7. For my dev workflow I'm using Netbeans, Sourcetree, Track&Release, Bitbucket, Notepad++

For University and Private Projects:
Thinkpad X1 Carbon (i7, 16GB, 512GB PCIeSSD) or my Gaming PC (i7 7700K, 32 GB, 512GB PCIeSSD) both running Antergos Linux.

Sounds awfully familiar. :)

At work I use an HP Elitebook Revolve (i5, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD) running Win 7. I use Sourcetree as well - hitting up Bitbucket, Github, and some internal repos.

At home I mostly use my gaming machine (a refurbed HP ENVY 700-515XT I got off Woot - i7, 16GB RAM, 1TB, Win 10), and on the go I use the refurbed Surface Pro 4 (i5, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD) which has been absolutely awesome. Best tablet I've ever had - and I've had more than a few... I only wish I'd had the money to get the next i5 up with a little more RAM and storage.

I've got a 2013-ish era MacBook Pro that I poke around on just to keep familiar with what's going on on the other side of the fence, and I've got an Ubuntu machine somewhere that I lost track of...

The vast majority of my coding at work is done using VS Code. It became my favorite editor from the first run of the early betas.
