I set up a lightweight, encrypted laptop with a VPN, keep a USB hub with a power bank, a wired mouse, and a single USB‑C to HDMI adapter so I can plug into any display. My coffee? I use a reusable thermos, a collapsible French press, and a set of travel mugs that fit in the same bag. All that plus a pre‑downloaded list of offline docs, and I’m ready to code and sip anywhere.
