From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The laptop is way faster and apparently installing clang is super simple, so developing on linux is expected to go smooth.
I'm going to go with what one of the commenters said and disable the windows booting option and install an NTFS reading program to reach the files in that partition.
I'm very glad i did this, it was planned for months and now I'm very excited :D
I'm really glad to hear that! Happy Linuxing :)
Had a linux moment yesterday, piped "clang --help" into grep to find something, it wasn't there but the piping itself was awesome.

Thanks for telling me lol. I remember sharing your enthusiasm when I started.
If you don't mind me sharing, here are some tools I use the most in the console:
Also, some GUI programs I love:
Pick your poison lol. If you don't mind, we can start talking via ptivate message.
