You can do Linux development in Windows using the full version of Visual Studio.

Use a VM guest in a Linux machine, and map a network drive to a Linux path. Use a cross-compiler to generate Linux code using GCC, allowing GDB as a debugger.

You can also install CYGWIN or MinGW and do local testing in Visual Studio using GCC and GDB natively in Windows since VS 2015, and then later migrate to Linux to test.
