preface

Hi, I’m Xiezhr

Recently, I have a new computer, so I have to build a development environment and install various common software. Today I will give you a Chinese conscience software uTools that you may not have used before. It is also the first software I installed after I just got my computer. The first time I knew about this software was when I was watching the main video of programmer Fishskin up at B station, and the up master recommended it. It can greatly improve work and study efficiency, can be called a magic device is not too much. I’m sure you’ll like it after you use it.
