By and large I consider a desktop/workstation to be the same. With the prior
not necessarily having a network connection. I suppose pendantic types would
argue over that but well.
The only real draw back I can see using Lunar in a production environment is
the compile times. Even then I don't see where that's something that cannot
be worked around. After all you, sofar and I'm sure others use it there.
