Switching to Android after 4.5 years of iOS

This is the start of a series of posts on my current web dev setup. The various software I use, how it’s set up etc. Being a big nerd, I enjoy reading descriptions of peoples’ work environments, and I figured it was my turn to chip in. In this first post, I’m starting with a…
