If you're building software targeted at most of the world it makes sense to use Windows.
- inertiatic 6y agoMost of the world uses Android to run their browsers, right? Should I develop on Android?
- pjmlp 6y agoActually according to Google own statistics, most of Android Studio users are on Windows.
- BeetleB 6y agoAre you suggesting that most of the existing Windows SW out there could be developed on Linux and would just run fine on Windows? Can MS reasonably develop MS Office on Linux? Can Adobe develop Lightroom on Linux and it'll just work on Windows? For most Windows SW, the answer is no. So the analogy with Android doesn't make much sense.
- csomar 6y agoNot really. Android, Web, Embedded, Networking can be done in Linux.
- dleslie 6y agoI meant desktop software, but even so most Android users also use Windows, and pair Android with Windows. Most Android developers use Windows.
