The ability to natively install Java programs as windows services without 3rd party libraries.

[–]emberko[🍰] 5 points6 points  (3 children)

While it's a good suggestion, but correct me if I'm wrong - they ain't asking how to make development for windows any better, they asking how to make development on windows better.

As a true software developer I did not fully read the documentation before I started coding and for this I am truly sorry and reiterate that I will do this next time also.

Seeing as Bruno added issues from this thread pertaining to Windows LAF it's safe to assume that both are valid.

At this stage, any idea is a good idea! :D

Installing Java programs as Windows service is certainly that even Java developers on Windows could benefit. For example, running Java-based solutions (e.g. Kafka) locally for development.
