I think "WSL is our Windows strategy" is perfectly acceptable for "bleeding edge"/modern things like this. I've been using WSL as my full time web development environment for years now. Thanks to VSCode's great remote support for it I don't notice any downsides to it.
- mderazon 4y agoI don't like WSL, it magically works with VScode until it doesn't and some extension breaks or it runs super slow or git commit takes 10 seconds.
- WorldMaker 4y agoVS Code remoting is great and magic when it works well (which in my experience has indeed been most of the time), but it's still so much overhead versus native builds and native support. I use WSL for the rare times I need to use Ruby, but Node has been mostly good enough in Windows for years at this point and it is nice to have native builds with no remoting overhead.
