Is AngularJS compatible with Linux?

Go to solution Solved by colonel_mortis,

And the slightly more involved answer is that Angular is a javascript framework that runs in the browser, so you can use it on any operating system you like; for programming it it, you can use any text editor, though an IDE with angular support or a plugin for it might make things slightly easier, with autocomplete and features like that. Compatible IDEs are available on all platforms; Visual Studio Code is an example that has support built in and runs on the major platforms (Win, Mac and Linux).

Hello 

I'll be using Angular framework this year at the university and I'd like to know if I can use it on Linux :)
Any suggestions?
The last framework I used was laravel and it worked just fine.
Thank you.

If you going with Linux, I prefer using Visual Studio Code because the integration with TypeScript language that Angular uses, and if you want to use other editor I also recommend Sublime Text 3 with Microsoft TypeScript package for the I/O wrapper.

Thank you so much, I'm kinda new at this but I'm very interested, I wonder if you could advise me on any site, yt channel, a book where I can learn more. Thanks

If you want to start with Angular, The Tour of Heroes tutorial is already comprehensive enough for basic Angular skills.

Start with Angular CLI or Angular 4 and ignore the Angular 1 because it's a completely different framework than the current one. If you want to learn the first Angular for some reason the Codecademy AngularJS is a great start. There's a lot of tutorial in Medium if you prefer blog style tutorial.

 

And welcome to Angular development my friend.

 

A bit of view development on linux.

Calling the ~2% Desktop Linux a "major operating system" makes me chuckle, actually.

Write in C.

For developers, I would imagine that it has considerably more than 2% adoption, so for developers I would argue it's definitely a major operating system. For general users though, I suppose it is a stretch.

AngularJS shouldn't be confused with angular, they are both very different. Angular 2 and above uses TypeScript however angularJS does not.

Being a developer, I respectfully disagree.

Being a dev myself i could say that about 100% of those i know use windows and 50% of them also use linux. If you check actual real statistics base of last stack overflow annual stats here are the stats :

Linux IS a major. That list is listing the Primary. A good chunk use 2 operating system. Like i said in my entourage about half devs i know uses 2 operating systems but i think it's over what the real average would be.

 

If you are interested in dev statistic check the latest at stack overflow here

We need to get more developers to develop on linux. Windows has too much software monopoly these days and not enough developers coding for FOSS

Personally i am more of the school of "as long as it gets the job done". As for FOSS, .Net has been going through big philosophy changes for the last couple years. The shear amount of open source project i end up using daily vs closed source is easily a factor 50 to 1 nowadays. 10 years ago it was barely 1 to 1.

Dear god don't tell me you are using the Microsoft C compiler, just Ken Thompson can imagine the mess and the hell that would be on it, well just using any C compiler in a Windows environment is like that actually...This is what really makes people chuckle...

If you are a C programmer it is born historically on Unix, and Linux today is the most used ones, and probably together with MacOS one of the best environments to program in C with, using an sh shell especially which is very suitable for C programs, unlike Windows. Unless you are a C++ dev

Linux is not a Unix, it does not even try to be one. I am not interested in playing with a toy OS, I prefer the real deal. You can keep it, thank you.

Sanely written C programs work just fine in Unix/BSD shells, the toy bash and the PowerShell.

I am both a C and a C++ dev. While Microsoft's C++ compiler is fine for me (it even supported C++17 before it was "finished"), the C support sucks dicks in hell. I usually use Clang for that.

Write in C.

Neither unix or MacOS which has the unix certification is real unix since it is just a commercial name, but I obviously meant the posix compatibility, the real toy OS is windows with his implementation tbh

I can assure you that Unix is real Unix. (Huh?)

Which the Linux toy just doesn't have. The Windows Interix subsystem has a more complete POSIX implementation than any Linux distribution I have ever come across.

Windows itself does not have POSIX compatibility. Neither the C standard nor the C++ standard require it anyway.

Bad thing every thing Microsoft touches dies and is being discontinued and not developed

because unix doesn't exists anymore but the closest things are called like that anyway plus the "like" for legal reasons

That basically makes C portability useless from Windows anyway

You are free to choose whether this is a lie or simply a misinformation on your side. Of course System V Unix still exists, both in commercial (AIX, HP-UX, Solaris) and free (illumos) flavors. No, it is not "made by the (dissolved) Bell Labs" anymore, but I sincerely hope that this is not the only thing that you consider to be essential for "a Unix".

 

If you disagree, please name three relevant Unix properties which AIX does not have.

No, why? The C standard is perfectly portable. Which one feature from which recent C standard is not available on Windows?

Write in C.
