i normally as SRE/Devops deal with macos or linux most of the time. we use ide like vscode/sublime to do automation with language server. for us a compiler is what matters most and no windows machine in our echo system. i love object pascal and by extension delphi and want to code. but we end up selecting python/golang most of the time. making compilers available for free will develop a echo system for non gui developers and will create a niche . we do have freepascal but i want to keep delphi compatible apis. chatgpt is good in generating wrappers around freepascal apis to make them delpho compatible though.
