    Anyone using an Ubuntu VM on Windows 10?

    Anyone using an Ubuntu VM on Windows 10?

    Do I need VirtualBox - or are there other options that work like VirtualBox?

    TIA!

    I have been running UB in VMware Workstation since Ver. 3

    But, I prefer UB on ESXi even with Workstation almost free now

    Finally got around to installing VMware Workstation and have UB installed!

    I see that I can download VS Code to run directing in Linux to make a C++ app...

    Can I also use VS from Windows and work the VM remotely?? Like when I write for an Android Emulator?

    What is the preferred method to develop code?

    Well - this moment in this video shows a remote coder running VS CODE in Linux "assisting" someone running C++ code in Visual Studio in Windows.

    Still don't know what is preferred, but MS sure is bragging about this super cool functionality.
