Linux works with virtually every programming language, and its built‑in package managers let you install all necessary libraries and tools with a single command or through a graphical interface, making setup faster than on other operating systems. This ease of access also simplifies writing documentation and scripts that automatically configure a new developer’s environment. For web development, Linux mirrors the production servers most sites run on, so the local environment closely matches the live one. The command‑line utilities are more powerful out of the box than on Windows or macOS, and Linux’s native SSH support is robust. Most popular IDEs—VS Code, Android Studio, Eclipse, IntelliJ, Zend, PhpStorm, and many text editors—run natively on Linux, with the exception of Xcode, which is macOS‑only. Linux offers high availability, is free, runs well in virtual machines, and can be used via WSL on Windows. It provides a wide range of desktop environments and customization options, allowing developers to tailor their workspace. Linux also avoids forced updates, intrusive ads, and hardware obsolescence, giving developers a stable, flexible platform.
