What is the preferred operating system for web programmers, client or server? -
which os prefer program on? client or server
there school of though if doing (mostly) web programming (or other server based code), should use server os dev machine, since that's closer environment app running.
update: should add, directed windows crowd
ok, know you're talking windows but...
i used develop on windows deployment on *nix servers. sure there lots of gotchas way of working, kind of used it.
in october 2005 switched linux, experiment, never went back. there steep learning curve. thought knew *nix pretty after 10 years of dealing it, knew nothing compared amount learned using on desktop machine.
workflow has been smoother developing , deploying similar platforms.
more recently, have started pick servers running ubuntu server, closely match our ubuntu desktop development machines.
if talking difference between desktop , server edition, i'd guess needn't worry it. if you're developing on 1 os deployment on another, i'd consider changing desktop platform.
