This isn't inherently bad, and is quite good for some other programming endeavors, but is less effective for modern web development that makes consistent use of packages and servers.Įnter Linux, and more specifically Windows Subsystem for Linux. Windows does not function on a Unix kernel, and has its own completely different set of file structures and developer tools. MacOS has Homebrew, a package manager that uses terminal commands to install and use open-source software.MacOS is built on a Unix kernel, upon which most frameworks and languages built for web development work seamlessly.MacOS has the benefit of a built in terminal to interact with its file system.While I love both MacOS and Windows equally for different reasons, I understood why: However, if you're also like me, you may have finished up a programming bootcamp where it was made clear that MacOS is the preferred OS environment for web development, and that using Windows would lead to a world of headaches and compatibility issues. They all provide their own unique user experiences, and all have something to offer for different people. If you're anything like me, then you're a developer with a love for (or at the very least a respect for) all different kinds of modern operating systems. NOTE: This post will be updated as time goes on with further tips, and if the installation process changes in any way.
