   Windows IoT Edition is a joke. It’s Microsoft’s sad attempt to compete   
   with Linux, while still strictly abiding by the iron principle of   
   maximizing Microsoft’s revenue, by ensuring that it cannot possibly   
   cannibalize sales of any other version of Windows.   
      
   As a result, it ends up being seriously crippled in functionality, and   
   requires a separate full-fat Windows PC to do development on. Unlike   
   Linux, which is fully capable of self-hosting its own development and   
   deployment stack.
