Ubuntu/Mint alternatives for web developer?

Question

linux

Hello.
There was a need to reinstall my good old linux mint, but then I recently remembered Zorin OS and now I’m thinking whether it’s worth trying it as the main axis that could replace mint for me or maybe find something else.
By and large, it is important for me that the system works stably and looks beautiful out of the box (I understand that beauty is a subjective concept and if you wish, you can probably “wind it up” on any distribution kit, but I like the way mint and zorin look).
Hence actually 2 questions:
1. Are there any "underwater" developments under Zorin?
2. Are there any other distributions that are similar (to what I described above)?
PS windows 10 + wsl do not offer.

Answer 1

Usually they say how - if you don't know what to install - install Debian :)

Answer 2

It is better to take something popular, for example, Ubuntu, so that most of the software works without shamanic dances with a tambourine

Answer 3

What difference does it make which system? The main thing is that the hands grow from where it is necessary.

Answer 4

manjaro kde and you will be happy

Answer 5

Take it and try it, one hell is based on ubuntu that mint that zorin. If you do not want to take a steam bath, take a poppy.
Migrated from mac to ubuntu. I am writing a full stack in Idea. If you know how to google, then there is no special difference, Linux is set up once and that's it. Elementary OS wouldn't recommend for the job. Looks cool but dofiga buggy ((. But in principle, take any distributions based on ubut (I had fewer problems with them).

Answer 6

Install kali with gnome, only through netinstall image. In addition to development tools that can be pulled from repositories or with deb packages, you can also check for vulnerabilities. Two birds with one stone are killed at once))
And if it's no joke, then ideally use only mainstream distributions, there are not many of them (Red Hat, Debian, Archlinux, Slack, Genta). If knowledge and time allow, then you can put Arch and adjust everything for yourself. Thanks to arch, it will become a little clearer about the Linux device, and the number of packages / programs is impressive, and in terms of development / installation / configuration time it will be faster than Genta. Genta can be used for thrills if Arch is too easy to use. I do not advise Slack, no, well, if you want to mess with the search for dependencies, then please)
The bottom line is Red Hat (family from Fedora, RHEL, CentOS), but it is rather more tailored for servers and suffered with them at one time. For me - well, not mine!
So Debian can be adequately considered, since red-eye is regulated, the entry threshold is low, and there are a lot of packages / programs. You can make it a desktop, you can configure it as a server, you can use standartalone, you can use rolling release. Universal dist. If the kernel seems old, and Debian has a focus on reliability rather than newness, then it makes sense to look towards distributions with a large community.
Personally, I DO NOT RECOMMEND Ubuntu - you might be disappointed, personally I myself am currently using Kali with a gnome on board. I installed and recommend only the netinstall image for installation. With the gnome, too, everything is clear - basically it is supported by Red Hat, as well as the kernel itself, and they dictate their conditions for Linux as a whole, so although I went through other options, I do not consider them. Most importantly, in the case of a professional career in IT, experience with Debian and gnome is appreciated. In any case, my fellow IT experts agree with my opinion. Although - how many people, so many opinions)
I wish you success

Answer 7

Have you tried elementary os?

Answer 8

Googled about Hyper-V hypervisors, try KVM, maybe it will come in.

Answer 9

I've had https://ubuntubudgie.org for a few years now and I'm very happy with it :)

Answer 10

Why not try Pop!OS?
The guys are trying hard, Just the OS for the audience of developers, they even started releasing their cars (40gb, 4tB, Core i 7 Intel, 14 hours of life on 1 charge.).
Samp Oka did not install, because. So far, only the Corp. laptop is available on Windows.
