What do you expect on a Linux distro to learn Web Development?

If you were a newcomer and you wish to learn, train and practice web development for example: django. Let's suppose you know little about Linux and python, how a Linux distro could you help you? What tools, wizards, configurations, would you expect?

None, the particular web stack should take care of any tools, wizards, or config that is relevant.

Web dev has become to broad.

See https://apollokit.org for a good example. You still need some tools around. Yarn and nodejs, but that should be it. Docker for the more adventurous.

PHP Laravel offers a Vagrant virtual machine image with instructions. One can be up and running in 15 minutes. https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/homestead
