>I don't want to dual boot because it's not recommended that much. Who doesn't recommend it? It's absolutely viable and easy to do[0]. Another option might be WSL[1] which lots of people like. I don't use it myself, but apparently it works pretty well. Another option would be to install Cygwin[2][3], which will provide you with most of the unix/linux toolset. The advantage here is that you don't need to install Linux at all. all of the above have the ability to install servers (nginx/apache/postgres/etc.), use linux dev tools (clang/gcc/gdb/php/Node/React/etc.), run unix/linux shells and utilities/GUIs and provide you with a linux or linux-like environment from which to learn.
