Hi, I’m a Garuda "Like”r since 2 years. Such a great an robust distro!
My question is if there a distro for development purpuses?
Right now my host is Garuda Gaming Edition (obvious reason: robustness, not only for gaming), and in my virtual machines all the others SO’s I use (vmware Workstation Hypervisor). For programming I choose Linux Mint, but, I had some errors and I swap to Manjaro KDE Linux for dev.
But in order to development, can you recomend me another Garuda distribution?
Yo uso Garuda para desarrollar sin problema, mientras que tengas snapshots de btrfs POR LAS DUDAS, estas bien. más que nada por si alguna actualización te mata algo.
Si y no. Gaming Edition es maravilloso en su robustez, pero, para una máquina virtual, pesa mucho, de ahí que escogí Manjaro, aunque sea KDE, porque xfce es ma aliviano, pero, con alguno problemas de configuración. No quiero volver a Linux Mint, de ahí la consulta. Yo mantengo mi entorno de desarrollo y estudio separado en una VM, cosa que no intervenga el host. Para mi, me ha dado resultado, pero, quiero una versión LTS de alguna distribución Arch qué me dé estabilidad. Insisto, hasta el momento, ha sido Manjaro KDE.
You can perform various degrees of “undragonization” (well documented in the forum) or “decatppuccination” (less documented but possible following similar steps) on the flagship KDE editions… easiest way is to change back to Breeze global theme and accept the desktop and window layout as well. This should restore the default panel, if not you can manually add it back in. The result is still an opinionated configuration of KDE since Garuda changes numerous default settings. In my opinion better than KDE Lite
Edit: it seems like the issue is with your vmware setup and not with any particular ISO…
I happen to love Gnome, so I’ve been using the Gnome edition for about four years now, both for development and private use. Hard to tell you why it would be best, I guess it’s a matter of taste. I can tell you that it works great for (at least) java, bash and groovy development.
When I was a bit younger I decided the “best” development distro would inevitably be the most lightweight one, so I messed around with Enlightenment and such. While those were fun times, my priorities have shifted somewhat.
You can customize any of the flavour according to your usecase .
But, i would recommend a WM over DE , for development stuffs , because WMs are better when you have soo many stuffs running parallel , I would also recommend to use any terminal multiplexer if you are a terminal guy.
my personal setup is like this : Hyprland+zellij+neovim
Well, you will have to figure out the configuration that will work well for you … because there are peoples who are doing well with DE’s also …
