Recommended Linux Distro for Penetration Testing and Programming
Go to solution
Solved by ShazXVII,
You can install all of the tools that are used in Kali and Parrot on Ubuntu just fine. Or you could just dual boot whatever flavor you want to use for daily use and the one you want to use for pentesting. I get why you wouldn't like Kali linux, but as long as you don't use it as your daily driver, there shouldn't be any problems with it. For programming you can use any distro, as there is practically no difference in programming on different flavors, except that you will use different commands for installing languages and programs. I personally use Ubuntu with an i3 derivative as my DE, and it works well for both programming and pentesting.
