IDE vs CLI has nothing to do with it.
Windows isn't the only OS that has a graphical IDE - likewise Bash is available on Windows.
(all of my tools are available on both systems)
- pjmlp 9y ago> IDE vs CLI has nothing to do with it. Sure it has, because it springs from the developer culture on each OS, and the main reason why good UI/UX research is so hard on GNU/Linux systems. It is always an uphill battle, as GNOME and KDE devs know about. Also note that I pair macOS with Windows on my list.
- jenscow 9y agoSame could be said against Windows. Ever used Windows 8? "Everyone" hated it. Windows 10 has gone for the hybrid UI; both "modern" and traditional. At the same time. I'm not sure why you say it's hard for UI/UX research on Linux, when there are so many different desktop environments and toolkits - all(?) of which are theme-able. On Windows, you're stuck with one. Well, both.
- pjmlp 9y agoWhich is exactly the point of lack of good polished UI/UX on GNU/Linux. Hence ChromeOS and Android in what concerns consumer devices, where Linux just happens to be the chosen kernel but nothing prevents Google changing it for something else.
