I was struggling for three months using Catalina, Claude Code V1.0.0, no Desktop integration and no VS CODE integration and very disconnected platforms. I tried installing Docker to run Ubuntu and even Docker was not working correctly on Catalina.
Solution: I removed Catalina and installed Ubuntu for the first time. After using Windows and iOS for decades I can't believe I have never used Linux before, its incredible. In under half a day I had all of the latest builds of Claude Code, Openclaw, VS CODE and various agents up and running. What took me days to do now takes hours. I wasted days copy and pasting git diffs for review!
