Edit Reason: tried to compile C++ with the Pinebook
)
Hello there,
I do not have the Pro Version yet, but i can say if you know yourself around linux a bit you can absolutely use it as such. Somewhere on this Site it says "not suitable for a daily driver" (the OG Pinebook) but i've been using it as such for over a year now and loving it because you can charge it on any USB Port.
Mostly terminal work/reading pdf/LibreOffice (also works well)/YT Tutorials/light programming...
Now the difficult part would be compiling, i only scripted sh and python (no compiler) and it worked of course.
Compiling C++ or Java is a quite heavy Task i think. So i imagine the gcc compiler on the Pinebook Pro will take some time to compile. You can also let a server compile it for you, i believe there are services like that (or your own server/PC at home)
I will try it out on my OG Pinebook tho. Im curious now.
Edit: tried a light C++ Program i wrote a few years back with Code::Blocks and compiled it via gcc. works like a charm.
Still in heavier projects im sure it'll take some time to compile.
