| I'm using a MacBook Pro with Windows on it as my main development environment except for iOS native stuff obviously. 1. install chocolatey https://chocolatey.org/, and install everything with it 2. install conEmu for a decent command line 3. install git for windows, which comes with a bash shell that brings you all the linux commands, inlcuding ssh. This brings a Windows PC relatively far. You can even get ssh-agent working with an according .bashrc script (along the lines of https://github.com/joaotavora/holy/blob/master/share/zsh/ssh...) This does it for me to do node / web-dev / java/ android centered development, I prefer it over macOS and Linux. Things I do not use: 1) Cywgin. Quite the behemoth, and I get by with git bash just fine 2) The Ubuntu Subsystem. I tried it, had trouble with ssh stuff, seems not ready yet... 3) putty. the open-ssh that comes with git is better and closer to linux. |
I often wished that each HN user got one '10x upvote' a week. I would give it to you this week.
