minus-squareBURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 years agoMy problems come with Java (versioning is a pain), JavaScript, Node, etc C/C++ is probably the second easiest after C#

minus-squareBURN@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years 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.

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-up1·2 years 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-up2·2 years agoAh yes, I love WSL deciding to consume 12 of my 16gb of memory
