Not OP, But WSL and its recent improvements come to mind. If you're deploying on a Linux box it makes it pretty seamless to develop.

So Windows is better than Linux because it allows you to use a restricted version of Linux?

And the full version of windows. Honestly I love Linux with Wine for the same reason. I just encounter more hiccups that way rather than the WSL route. It's just more complicated to emulate GUIs.
