That’s cool if you can, but the majority of business desktops/laptops runs Windows. Hard to gain enterprise traction when it’s hard to run tools on your local machine

Just use WSL2 and Docker Desktop. VS Code has DevContainer support so you can standardize on a Docker image for your project.

To be fair, vscode and .net core on linux is pretty much like having windows and visual studio at this point.

Without the debugger, unfortunately. You still need VS or Rider for that.

The debugger works fine on Linux?

The only thing missing are some profiling tools.

If you really need those you're better off with Rider which is integrated with DotTrace.

What problem have you had with the debugger?

Or wsl2
