I had to test/fix something at work and I set up a Windows VM because it was a bug specific to Windows users. Once I was done, I thought, “Maybe I should keep this VM for something.” but I couldn’t think of anything that wasn’t a game (which probably wouldn’t work well in a VM anyway) or some super specific enterprise software I don’t really use.
I also am more familiar with the Apple ecosystem than the Microsoft one so maybe I’m just oblivious to what’s out there. Does anyone out there dual boot or use a VM for a non-game, non-niche industry Windows exclusive program?
Really? JetBrains Rider is great IMO. Though you do have to pay for it.
You have to pay for visual studio too if it is for business use (the license is also SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than rider)
My coworker uses VS and it seems like the IDE is doing nothing - every time I open one of his projects in rider 85% of the code is highlighted with suggested optimizations and refactors that VS thinks is fine
Admittedly it’s been awhile since I last checked on it, when I last checked it was missing a few of the hot nice features like hot reload (Which, you’ll need to take from my cold dead hands, because I love it lmao)
True, I think hot reload is the one big thing it’s lacking.
