Or, just download the ready made VMs from the Internet. The only downside is that it takes up a lot of space for an additional operating system.Ĭreate a virtual machine with a Linux operating system. Good interoperability, no boot issues - I loved the concept. Install your favorite Linux distribution within Windows. Not really maintained (i.e., no updates) but I have not seen any problems. I had tried multiple tools in the past, and revisited them to check which tool best satisfies my use case.Ī bunch of utilities that bring Linux commands to Windows. It was only then that I started missing less, touch, magic through pipes, split, and friends. But as I started looking at other platforms for my hobby projects, command line became more and more embedded in my daily work. I did not use a lot of command line with most of the development happening on a browser in the last four years. It also helped that most of the programs I used were on Windows - thanks to my day job. While servers are largely managed through SSH or even CPANEL today, I switched to Windows only after experiencing multiple issues with boot loaders. I am a Windows guy through and through, but had been an active user of Linux on my main desktop and servers.
The humble ‘cmd’ in Windows is good enough, but who ever can be satisfied with stuff that is ‘good enough’?
