[QGIS-Developer] QGIS daily use and development set up

[Hugh Kelley]

Hi all,

I am a daily QGIS user for work in addition to a variety of programming
tasks i'm responsible for . I would like to begin spending some time
developing QGIS plugins and contributing to the documentation.  I am trying
to figure out the best way to set things up on my computer.

because I use QGIS LTR for daily mapping tasks, I need to be very confident
that nothing I do development-wise will affect the QGIS install I use for
those mapping tasks.

Does anyone have a similar situation? What has been your workflow? I am
using a windows 10 computer, with WSL for my python needs. I could set up
an entirely separate VM especially if a linux machine would be heavily
recommended, Would a dedicated windows Python venv for QGIS development be
sufficient?

Thanks for any and all suggestions!

Hugh
