Freelancers 👋 I’m doing research for a new project. If you’re a graphic designer (or freelancer), I’d love to hear how you manage clients, projects, and invoices.

What tools do you use? What’s frustrating right now?

Was playing around with Sentry and realized how packed it is. Got me wondering: if you could strip it down to just the most useful features—what would you keep? Which parts actually help you the most as a developer?

In case you didn't know Visual Studio could do this:

#dotnet #csharp
It should do that already. It does for me. Even makes the return type Task and adds the using statement, which I forgot about.
