You could help the nix team add windows support!
Honestly, there's just not a solution you're going to be happy with, coming from Nix. Windows is like categorically maybe the OS most fundamentally unsuited for folks who appreciate sane ways of managing computers.
If you only need it for one piece of software I'd absolutely use wine or a VM.
- delta_p_delta_x 3y ago> Windows is like categorically maybe the OS most fundamentally unsuited for folks who appreciate sane ways of managing computers Tell that to the billion-or-so Windows computers that are straightforwardly managed and remoted-into with Active Directory, SMB, and Remote Desktop. Not to mention group policies, registry files, and PowerShell.
- pjc50 3y agoIt's interesting that these are completely orthogonal approaches. The UNIX world took a lot longer to develop fleet management tools, and when it did they came from a headless server point of view rather than the "hundreds of anonymous desktop machines" point of view. Powershell remoting achieves similar management objectives to ssh but is a very different interface.
