    Windows isn’t fit for software development unless you’re doing Windows specific stuff. Maybe you can get by with WSL or cygwyn or similar, but that’s just a bandaid to make the machine less windows. You’ll probably still have problems with like case folding and line endings.

      As someone who does dev stuff on both windows and Linux, line endings have never been an issue. Are you using notepad or something?

      I’ve only had to use wsl for some stuff only designed for *nix, like openresty (and lua in general).
