I’ve been using Cursor lately, and honestly, it’s been such a nice upgrade to my workflow. Things just feel smoother, and I’m definitely getting more done without as much effort.
But now I’m curious—what tools are you all using to stay productive?

I am not using any tools. What makes me most productive is the Airplane Mode.

I find using a focus music app helps me zone in on work. Listening to instrumental music or nature sounds helps me concentrate and block out distractions.
There are a few tools that can really help. For task management, Trello or Asana let you organize projects, set deadlines, and collaborate with teams. Notion is great for note-taking and keeping all your info in one place. If you're trying to stay focused, Forest or Focus@Will can help reduce distractions. For time management, RescueTime tracks how you spend your day and helps you stay on track. And if you need to streamline communication, Slack is a must-have for team chats. Each of these tools can help you stay organized and keep your workflow smooth.
For me, a communication tool for team chats has been essential. It cuts down on unnecessary meetings and makes it easy to share updates quickly.
A collaborative whiteboard tool has been a good way for brainstorming sessions. It makes it easy to visualize ideas and collaborate in actual time with my team.
I've saved a ton of time by using an email management application. By automatically sorting my inbox, I can concentrate on only most important emails, which lowers stress and boosts productivity.
