I’ve been developing for Linux using Macs for the last 12 years or so. At first I was really into setting up everything just-so on the Mac, with an environment so closely mirroring the production servers that I was confident I could deploy stuff from there to staging. But in the last few years, I ended up just having a reproducible set of dev and stage-like Docker containers. That way I can do all my coding in my nice shiny Apple UI, and all the build/test/run stuff happens in a place I have full control over. This probably doesn’t solve everyone’s problems but for me it was the best way to have my Linux cake and eat my candy Apple too. And yeah, the ZSH thing was super annoying.
