I know there choice of distro is really meaningless as you can install almost any program on almost any distro. But I have been playing with kali which is for security people and pen testers. Is there a similar distro for programmers? Like a few ides installed some profiling tools some virtual environment tools etc?

    I mean pretty much any distro that isn’t locked down will be good for programming. All you really need is a package manager with a selection of at least somewhat modern dev tools, which almost all of them have.

        I’m thinking things like where they don’t give you access to a console. I guess like Android or things with heavy parental controls or whatever.
