As Black Friday is round the corner, it would be really awesome if people here can share list of some promotions on dev tools and related software/subscriptions which they might be aware are having promotions.

To start with I will a promo on one of my favourite one - Beyond Compare. Scooter Softwares are having black friday promotion with 25% on their licenses. Checkout https://twitter.com/ScooterSoftware/status/1461435633973571588

Disclaimer: I am not associated with Scooter Software, just a fan of their product.

    On Black Fridays in the past, I've bought:

    * Screenflow – the best screencasting software / surprisingly good general purpose video/audio editing software

    * Access to Cruip.com – nice landing page / admin templates, with versions made separately in Vanilla HTML/React/Vue/Tailwind. I've used the Vue ones.

    * Affinity Designer - a vector editor like Adobe Illustrator, but smaller footprint

    (I have no affiliation to any of these)

    Pluralsight has a major discount on all their subscriptions, making it the best time of the year to either renew or get a new one.

    All of the GNU tooling will be free, though it's not necessarily for the holiday. Doesn't mean they aren't worth checking out, though!
