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?

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

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.
