I hand-code HTML in Sublime Text on OS X. I prefer Sass-flavoured CSS and follow a personalised BEM/SUIT CSS hybrid methodology—oh, and I build responsively by default. I’m fairly adept at jQuery and not afraid to get my hands dirty in some vanilla JavaScript from time to time. I’ve also dabbled in a few JavaScript frameworks too but I still consider myself a newbie in that area. I’ve got the basics of PHP down but I’d rather leave the hardcore back-end stuff to the devs who actually know what they’re doing. For more dynamic site builds, I may use WordPress or Jekyll.
I automate my build tasks with Grunt (or Gulp) which does all the fancy compiling, linting and all-around magic. My browser of choice is Firefox but I test in all modern browsers and will spin up an IE virtual machine during testing. When it’s time to commit some code, I use Git with Tower.
I’m a natural problem-solver but if I get stuck, Google is my first port of call. On a daily basis, I keep up-to-date with the industry through the plethora of email newsletters I subscribe to, watching conference videos, going through the /webdev subreddit or using training resources such as Frontend Masters or Code School.
I have an eye for design and I’m pretty decent with Photoshop. I’m also quite capable of wrangling HTML emails.
