I know you asked for tools and techs, but I'd put self care and how not to burn out. Nobody actually teaches you this, and the assumption that you'll just push through/work like a demon/code till your eyeballs fall out is still way too present in the industry. Don't lose your mind, I've done it once or twice and it'll hold your progress back.

Well said! I burned out once too and it isn't pretty.

Yeah it totally sucks. I just got inspired to write a post about it. There are things we can do to prevent it and work with it!
