What tools do you use for writing? (beehaw.org)

Was curious to see what tools everyone uses for both writing and storage.

Personally I use Word for writing, Excel for planning and progress tracking, and a local MediaWiki server for note taking.

What about you?

Similar: I use Codium with a vim input plugin and keep everything in plaintext as well. I write in markdown and use small scripts and tools like pandoc to produce epub versions that I can take with me on my phone. I use the notation features in my e-reader to do editing. All content except for a couple fonts and images are textual, making it ideal for tracking changes with git.
