3rd party tools. What do you use?

EDdiscovery when playing generally.
EDengineer when mat farming/engineering ships.

I used to use Coriolis, but it doesn't seem to have been updated to reflect the new engineering or Chieftain, so I've been using the updated EDshipyard recently for ship builds and loadouts.
Inara for the engineer blueprints.
Coriolis has the beta (https://beta.coriolis.edcd.io/outfit/alliance_chieftain), but not all mods are there. But I have noticed that EDEngineers now has a Loadout tab that displays all your mods in the ship and their %'s. I wouldn't be surprised if down the road you could either save them in EDEngineeers or have it automatically link and export them to EDshipyard or Coriolis if it every gets updated. Seems every time I look at EDEngineers, they have added something new...
 
I use my phone to snap a screen shot like, materials needed for an experimental. But that’s about it.

I signed up to Inara, but rarely visit.
 
EDEngineer A great app to keep track of your eng mats.

Captain's Log Great tool to keep track of \trip outside the bubble or just as a travel log.

E.D.I.S.O.N Great tool to help find those Lat & Long waypoints on planets!

TCE Trade Computer Extension Another great tool for trading that is chock full og good things, I just got this working today I am quite novice with it.

Elite: Dangerous Market Connector (EDMC) I installed this tool as it work with TCE as a plugin and use it to keep Inara updated though I am still figuring out how all that works, Inara is not seeing all my fleet but I am guessing that just user error or misunderstanding how it works.


Other than that I use eddb, beta.coriolis, Inara and a couple other now and then when I need to not to mention plain ole google searches!

I am interested in using EDDI to import ship data to Coriolis. Does anyone else? How easy is it to set up? What other 3rd party apps are recommended?

EDDI is good, I use it, easy to set up, and works through voice attack. Also EDSM is good to get involved with and links into EDDI.

EDDB, is a must to find commodities and materials for engineering. INARA, and FANDOM
 
Just wanted to update as i said I was using TCE in my earlier psot but this was a new thing;

TCE Trade Computer Extension Another great tool for trading that is chock full of good things, I just got this working today I am quite novice with it.

After a few days of messing around I have decided to uninstall the TCE tool as I find it a little cumbersome and complicated, the UI is too much in your face even when you alt tab out of game and I find it difficult to use/understand.

What I mean is that it is that it has a high learning curve and is not very intuitive.

What I would like is something that works like EDDB where you have a couple small buttons you can click to either find single, multi or loop routes with easy to work and understand interface, you know just like at the EDDB website.

Ideally it should connect to EDDB and use the information without need of having a local DB on your machine and give results in a layout like EDDB or very similar as it very easy to understand and is very intuitive.

This isn't meant to be a bash towards TCE and it's creator, just saying I don't think it's what I am looking for personally.
