2 32" monitors side by side.

code on left monitor

browser and dev tools (split vertically 50 / 50) on right monitor.

separate chrome tab behind browser + dev tool, with docs, for quick CMD+~

Wow, that seems like a lot of horizontal space to cover looking back and forth. Does your neck get sore at the end of the day?

Similar here. Slightly smaller monitor, but 3 of them. Only two at a time is typically used for development. The third is for me to tile apps like Slack and Spotify.
