Don't make excuses, start learning now or you won't make it tomorrow.

But aint saying windows is crap, its good as well ofc.

      65 have no page up and down / home and end buttons. Still hard to use them when i need to review the code. the other problem that the arrows too closed from the right shift and the most wierd u need to extra finger to push F1 - F12 coz they are of important keys for debugging lol
      TKL or 100% much better for my preference.

    1. Keyboard thats atleast 100% as numpad and function keys are handy especially as macros, how ever if small keyboards are you thing theb go for it. Also i use a trakball mouse. It staysbin once spot and after a few days with it will feel natural and wont take up space to move around!!
    2. A good stable os of your choice(depends on what your coding for)
    3. Internet, as the saying goes back in the day google is your friend or what ever search engine you have/use
    4. Backup harddrives, incase your pc does bsod and dont recover you have your backups!!!
    5. No interuptions/no yotube unless your using playlists but beware any time your on yotube you can get destracted easily
    6. Start fresh, dont rush and keep an open mind.
    7. Dont listen to haters, if you wanna use windows or mac to program for eaither its your choice not theirs...
    8. Be positive and start small. What ever your working on break down into sections so you dont get lost in the overall look.
    9. Be your self!!!
    10. (This should of been number 1) But always ALWAYS comment what your functions do as well as anything that you can possible.
    You may never know how long you may take a break just to try to get back to it and asking your self "what was this for or what did it do again???"

      You can code as efficiently on windows or max. And let’s not forget Linux. But Mac is generally more stable and has longer battery life plus new apple silicon is pretty good.

    You don't need all this shit, but I strongly recommend a second screen to work with when on desktop. Simply for the extra screen space, which is very nice to put your app, your code (sometimes two or three side by side) and google. It cost something like 30$ to get a second-hand monitor and an HDMI cable, and it save you a lot of time of switching tab and applications to get to what you need
