I use MSYS2 which is probably as close as you'll get to a Linux environment for native windows programs. There is a port of pacman fire package management, and it has an xterm compatible terminal called mintty. There's also Cygwin (and Babun is meant to be a nice configuration of this), but Cygwin tends to create an environment that is a bit more isolated from the rest of the system, while MSYS2 focuses more on working within the native environment.
