Docs and Sheets would only be impressive if they actually released a native desktop app for MacOS and Windows

This is the way IDEs should be. We should be able to run things locally without the overhead of a webbrowser

Funny thing is that there are more Windows devices out there than all iOS,MacOS, and chromebooks combined.

I'm just glad you support Windows. We need more of this!

Amazing job! Have you ever thought about porting this to a desktop app?

Server footprint from different manufacturers. Since most call home now a days

I see your points, but if all other things were equal what technical advantages are there over Windows Server.
105.
by sirjaz 2y ago
Oddly, based on Statista Windows Server has 72% of the on-prem market and 50% of the overall cloud market. I digress, I am looking for the technical aspects of why to linux is favored, if all other things were equal.

I mean it seems every new project on HN works on Linux, but not on Windows Server. Even though, most of these apps are written in Go, python, java etc .. without any specific linux components. I have a deep experience with both from an Admi

60% of the market place catalog, not actually usage. That is at about 50/50. Microsoft needs to work on getting it the other way. More like 60% Windows Server and 40% Linux Server

Windows Server aka CoreOS

This article doesn't talk about actual VMs/instances running in Azure. Also, so many new service devs only target Linux, and Windows is an after thought. No wonder 60% of the market place is linux.

Are there any plans for Windows App support? There are more Windows 10 and 11 users than all iOS, iPadOS, and MacOS users combined

This would be awesome if they got native Windows support rather than through wsl

What are the limitations of running the server on Windows?
114.
by sirjaz 2y ago
We do this all the time in Windows with Citrix. It is called pvs. It does a small pxe boot and then it streams down the windows server image

I hope you will support C#. It is rising in popularity.

Amazing job, love seeing native apps like this rather than webapps. Keep it up!

I wish Google wouldn't force us to use chrome. Hell they have Google Play for games on Windows, they could just offer the complete app store this way and get a close to native app.

Maybe they can finally make Google Sheets, etc... off-line stand alone app.

Figma has done an amazing job, I just don't want to depend on a constant connection for my software, and someone else's computer

I should have added this is still a cool project, and very impressive. I was just adding that it would be another level better if it was a native app.
