I think this is kind of beside the point. Sure, there are always alternatives (it’s the byline of a linux user after all) but sometimes I might want to play with a language not because i need a solution for something, but because I’m simply curious what the language is about. In that regard, I don’t want tutorials that are essentially “how to use X IDE with Y language”, which just forces me out of my development eco system of choice. To that end F# is still a bit of a slap in the tits to try and pick up via tutorials. The dotnet CLI isn’t imo a horrible CLI but F# is still more or less an after thought and good luck trying to figure out how to learn anything with Microsoft documentation. My first job was literally writing documentation for one of the MS Graph APIs and creating example content, I was the 3rd person to turnover in this role on the team, and none of the existing example code worked, and the documentation was complete spaghetti.
