How the Worlds of Linux and Windows Programming Converged

Once upon a time, the world of developers was split into two halves: One half was composed of Windows developers, who created most of the productivity apps that powered PCs (and, occasionally, servers). The other half comprised Linux and Unix developers, whose work focused on server-side development.Today, however, as the worlds of Windows and Linux move ever closer together, the distinction between Windows and Linux developers is disappearing. Gone are the days when you had to specialize in one ecosystem or the other.

One was a set of programming languages and frameworks that were designed primarily for the Windows world, like C# and .NET. Although Windows developers sometimes also worked with languages like Java, which was engineered as a cross-platform language, you knew you were a Windows dev if you found yourself touting the importance of coding in a “pure” object-oriented language like C#.

Most Windows developers were also united by Visual Studio, the IDE of choice in the Windows world. Visual Studio is certainly not the only IDE that works with Windows environments, but it was Microsoft’s homegrown solution.
