Must have tools for developers
At a networking event a few months ago, a web developer was bragging about his prowess, and to bow down to his intelligence, I asked what language he used, and he said, “what do you mean?” And I asked if he was more into PHP or Rails, and he said, “I develop WordPress sites.” Okay. It highlighted the fact that not all web developers are as advanced as we tend to assume they are, so in that spirit, we are featuring Placester.com’s top 30 favorite tools for web developing.
The tools range from hosting solutions to productivity tools, and all stand to improve any web developer’s toolbox, be they veterans or budding talents.

Another good text editor I’d recommend is called Textpad 8. I actually discovered it because it’s able to do something that Notepad++ can’t, and after messing with it I’ve found there are actually tons of features it has that Notepad++ doesn’t. Definitely a good tool to have in your toolkit, and it’s free!
