Software, Gear, and Other Things Mansoor Uses

Gear

Sony a5100 dSLR Camera

Turning a dSLR into a webcam makes video look a lot more professional. However, this is a deep rabbit hole, so only go down this road if you're ready for a new hobby.

Elgato Game Capture HD60 S

This lets me use my MacBook screen as a camera input to the streaming PC. It's how I share my screen. You'll need a USB-C to HDMI cable to connect the MacBook Pro to the Elgato and an HDMI cable to hook the Elgato to the streaming PC.

Das Keyboard 4 Professional for Mac

Das Keyboard sponsors me, and I use this keyboard with my streaming/gaming PC. I love the physical volume knob!

Drop Alt Mechanical Keyboard

Cassidy Williams designed a custom Drop Alt keycap set for Netlify. It has Halo Clear tactile switches.

Gamer Master 9000 PC

I use this PC for streaming to Twitch and for gaming (well, when I say "gaming" I mean "Fortnite"). I bought a prebuilt because I don't know a ton about building custom computers, so I asked Chris Biscardi what I should do and he told me to get this one.

MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2019)

This is my coding computer. Additional specs for the nerds: - Processor: 2.4 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9 - Memory: 32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4 - Graphics: Radeon Pro 560X 4 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

Software

Night Owl

Sarah Drasner makes the best themes.

Operator Mono

I paid for this font because it's a great font.

Visual Studio Code

Where I write my code.
