minus-squareBURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoWindows is a nightmare for development. Linux is generally not an option, so a UNIX based system is still easier than windows
minus-squareaidan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoFor C++/C I used to agree, but now with WSL it’s easy.
minus-squareBURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoMy problems come with Java (versioning is a pain), JavaScript, Node, etc C/C++ is probably the second easiest after C#
minus-squareaidan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoNode really? nvm makes it very easy, or using choco
minus-squareBURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoDespite trying at least 6 times, I’ve never been able to successfully start a node project on windows. No such problems on Linux or Mac. I tend to do my dev work at home with an Ubuntu server VM and ssh into it from my windows desktop now. Find that it’s the best of both worlds.

Huh fair, for me that’s cmake projects on Windows. with an Ubuntu server VM and ssh into it from my windows desktop now. That’s just WSL 💀
minus-squareBURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoWSL wasn’t a thing when I started with that, and it still doesn’t do everything I want it to, so I much prefer to not use WSL at all and instead manually manage the VM. There’s nothing wrong with the WSL approach, it’s just not one I like
minus-squareStumblinbear@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoAh yes, I love WSL deciding to consume 12 of my 16gb of memory
