WSL gives a pretty great Linux dev experience under Windows.

As for "a large portion of the software industry is iOS native apps"... How about plugging in some assumptions here and then multiplying them together:

1. Mobile app share of total software development. 30%

2. iOS share versus Android: 30%

3. What % of iOS app dev is native apps? 40%

My assumptions here give something like 4%. You should put whatever numbers you feel are right here, and I'm pretty sure it won't be close to "a large portion".
