Linux is great for development ! Why ?
Because all of the tools you would need to develop software are either installed or easily installed. The command line comes with a host of features - git, bash/zsh scripting, tmux, find, grep are but a few.
Because hosting environments provide Linux servers, which means you can build and test software in the same OS as where it would be hosted.
Because Linux is open source and runs on old/cheap hardware, which lowers the fiscal barrier to entry. consider the cost of building software on a Raspberry Pi versus a Mac or Windows laptop
Because Linux is open source (along with loads of other software), you can get hold of the source code and use it for learning/tweaking/contributing

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
