I can echo this. I'm working in F# in my day to day. While I like the language. I find the tooling IDE and other essentials are missing. I spent several weeks fighting swagger generation client and server tools. Something that just worked on the jvm. I bounce between Scala and Kotlin. But as a Linux dev I find the JVM far more forgiving.

Re F# tooling and IDEs: sadly the churn around the transition to .Net Core has really hurt F#s tools. Things that were stable and working since inception, and enabled highly productive workflows, have been trampled by missing features and shifting boundaries on the new platform. That said: it seems it's finally coming around, as .Net Core matures and gets more mature secondary tooling, a lot of the little blocking issues can finally be addressed.

I strongly recommend giving Rider a try for F# development - I've been really impressed.
