Hi Tom, In general JVM applications are mostly portable across Windows/MacOS/Linux but occasional road bumps do happen, you have experienced.
I believe most of Akka developers are using Apple hardware, but Linux is also a fine choice. It runs much better on desktops and laptops than it used to, and it also gives you best fidelity WRT target environments, because most of cloud environments are running Linux. Of course you can run Windows servers in the cloud too, but then there are OS license fees to consider. Another alternative is using Docker on you Windows / MacOS laptop to test your application in Linux environment before deploying it to the cloud. cheers, Rafał W dniu poniedziałek, 2 stycznia 2017 16:07:22 UTC+1 użytkownik Tom Bodine napisał: > > I have just spent two very frustrating days trying to get SBT and Akka to > run an application developed by a contractor who developed it using a > macintosh computer but I have a windows 10 machine. > > So I am considering buying up.
