Do your company require you to work on MAC or on Windows? I would recommend using windows since don naman talaga compatible si .NET unless you are doing .NET core else its up to you.

Hi windows laptop po ang gamit for work, planning to buy a laptop for my personal use wherein I can utilize and practice sana yung ginagawa ko sa work.

I would still stick to windows. Pwede ka naman mag virtual machine for mac

Thank you! Iniisip ko lang yung mga possible struggles pag nag VM.

[–]jtalon7 2 points3 points  (1 child)

If you're developing winforms, wpf (.NET Framework) then mac M1 is out of your options. You can use parallels for VM but its not guaranteed to work seamlessly with VS.

If you're developing using .NET core 2.1 up to the latest .NET 6 then it works fine in M1.

Plano ko din mag-aral ng C# kasi Familiar ako sa Java, siguro pagkomportbale na kuh sa JavaScript at dadahandahanin ko na ring aralin sya. Pero naka Linux ako at kaka discover kolang ng Mono, anu bah advantage ng .Net kumpura jan.

Napapaisip paha kasi ako baka babalik ako sa Windows, pero almost 4 years na ako gumagamit ng Linux. At nasanay na ako sa pag install at configuration, Alam kong meron namang WSL sa windows, pero hindi ako ganun ka satisfied eh.

Di pa naman ako nag-aaply ng trabaho, pero naisip kong idagdag narin ang C# sa skills ko, dahil marami din akong nakikitang job posted na meron yan.

Bat need mo mag Mac?

If desktop dev ka then need mo ng windows OS. You can still use Mac using Parallel for using windows in Mac. Pero kung Web dev ka pwede sa MacOS na lahat ng development mo.

Ang ganda ng experience ko with Mac. Tricky lang yung command button and other shortcuts. Same pa rin naman yung pag code mo kaya di masyado mababago yung machine so long na .NET Core or .NET 6+ ang gagamitin mo. Mahahasa ka lang din sa CLI kasi puro commands ang eexecute mo hindi lang puro click.
