It's sounds like your problem is proprietary Windows, and I feel for you. Other than the fact that Nix runs in Windows, it can't really help you with the consistent deployment thing.
We really need something we can point to to express and legitimize our frustration with Windows to those who don't understand how much more effort it takes to deal with a totally incompatible proprietary system.
- philipov 9y agoI'll trade expressing frustration for a tool that actually solves the problem. Every time this topic comes up, I ask the same question hoping someone will point to a tool designed for this use-case, and not just an afterthought compatibility mode for a different solution. Nix on windows is a non-starter because it's not really Nix-on-windows. It's Nix-on-Linux-Subsystem-for-Windows-10-Creators-Edition. Who's running Windows 10 Creators Edition on production? Give me something that runs on Windows Server 2012 and doesn't require all-or-nothing adoption.
