I'm actually too lazy to maintain 2 environments. As my site is new and not all that busy I develop on the same remote production server, different ssh user, different path, different (mirrored) db, different port# and so on but you save yourself issues with libraries and the rest of the config stuff. Then I test directly on the web from a Linux lappie and a windows lappie I have here with Chrome,FF and IE, if I'm happy I can deploy in minutes without avoidable surprises. Not very orthodox but I've been doing the same with my other programs (C/4GL) for years. For SSH I use puTTY on windows or Konsole on Linux (Debian Wheezy), installing on Ubunto should be similar. I still green with Node but I install the Node/npm package globally and the the rest in a user path. A new path for a new version of my program so running production sources are separate and so on...Hope this is useful K
