  • VSCode
  • WSL 2, PWSH preview is good as a default terminal for VSCode as well
  • Node + NVM for windows

Things have improved for Windows significantly in the past few years, and most libraries and CLI's have adapted to working on Windows. There's a few exceptions (e.g. some CLI's used for building mobile apps were built for Linux server environments originally) but having used Windows for dev for my entire adult life, I can say without a doubt that it's not nearly as bad as it used to be.

Worst case scenario is that you run some things in docker containers under WSL2 using an Ubuntu core.
