• Tailscale - installed for SSH and to allow access to Pi-hole features from outside network

Git or Git for Windows

• Run zsh instead of bash in a command prompt on Windows 11
• Run zsh 'natively' for coding in Windows (so WSL is out for this)
• Use oh-my-zsh for prettiness and a sense of well-being
• Reduce duplication so remove git-for-windows standalone installation
• Get IDE and terminal to play well with zsh

• Scoop also for command-line package management
• MSYS2 and pacman for installing and running zsh, git-for-windows and other utilities
