JetBrains Free Educational License JetBrains is the company behind the popular IDEAs: IntelliJ, WebStorm, PyCharm, and more. As a student (or teacher) you get access to the professional versions. Personally, these are my favorite IDEAs and what I use in my day-to-day. When I was a student, I tried a few IDEAs but JetBrains products are simply the best, in my opinion. I won't go into why, but I do recommend you pick up a license. Heroku Heroku is a platform to deploy your applications. You can for example deploy a website or a backend service. Additionally, Heroku allows you to attach resources such as a database, monitoring, and more. They provide step-by-step guides which makes it easy. Most of these resources can be used with the free hobby tier, which makes it perfect for personal projects. I've used Heroku for many years. It's my go-to service to deploy personal projects and make them available on the web. The free hobby tier is not specific for students, anyone can use it!
