- dikaiosune 11y agohttp://stackoverflow.com/research/developer-survey-2015 http://stackoverflow.com/research/developer-survey-2015 If StackOverflow surveys are any indication, more like 21.5%. I completely agree that I wish it wasn't tied to Mac (Linux please and thank you), but the proportion of developers is higher on OS X than in the consumer market. I have no data to support this, but I suspect that many of those devs on Mac are also front-end, which (again, no data) makes me think that they might care a lot more about a nice GUI tool than devs on other OSes.
- Alupis 11y agoIt's interesting to note that according to the same data points, Linux Desktop usage for developers is just about on par with OSX usage (20.5%).
- LocalPCGuy 11y agoAlso interesting to note that > 50% of all developers use Windows. So much for the other comments saying devs only use Macs.
- lectrick 11y agoThe "creator class", i.e. many devs, and probably most open-source devs, are on an OS X laptop these days.
