Now MS just have to seamless integrate their Ubuntu Bash filesystem with the Windows filesystem so I can create files in VSCode and access then in the ubuntu shell. They will build the best dev environment.
- oridecon 10y agoAn environment that doesn't match your production server is far from being the best one (this doesn't apply to all cases but you get the idea)
- dyu- 10y agoAgree 100%. Ubuntu desktop and server is gaining market share among devs (those who prefer working on bare-metal) for precisely this reason.
- Matthias247 10y agoWhat are you missing specifically there? The windows filesystem is already mounted in bash for windows, so you can access files created from Code there. However I didn't found that of too much use since I can't run windows executables from there and so WSL is pretty isolated. Instead I still use msys/cygwin for the shell which has it's quirks (file path magic) but works. In combination with docker for windows and volume mounts there I can even cross compile Linux executables on the windows shell, which is pretty cool.
