Node really? nvm makes it very easy, or using choco

[-] BURN@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Despite 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.

That's just WSL 💀

WSL 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
