Extra tools I’m using (not necessary, but those help):
Git Client (For Source control), I’m using the command tools, but you can GUI at https://desktop.github.com/

Far Manager (For easier file managing + command line tools), get it for free at http://www.farmanager.com/ If you don’t want to use it, simply use windows explorer + command prompt
