I don't know why we keep taking on clients whose products are written in a language that's not part of our core expertise

Currently working on 2 products simultaneously, one of which only runs on Windows and the other of which only runs on Linux, so I end up switching OS several times a day...and you'd be correct if you're thinking that that's a massive productivity killer

    Try win pro hyper-v? You might be able to switch while booted into windows. I am going to try this on my home computer.

    @Demolishun I originally tried running the Linux project via WSL, but it didn't like that
    Also tried running the Windows project on Wine, but that also didn't work

    There's probably a way to make both solutions work, but clients pay us to build features, not to make their tech stack more efficient ("but it works great for our devs and they have zero issues!")

    Either use VMs, or buy another computer. Switching is stupid because it kills productivity which is the most important cost factor.
