This surprised me too, I would not have expected that Githubbers develop on OS X and deploy to Linux.

I would be interested to hear more about why they made that choice.

Not everything we work on deploys to Linux.

Understood, but the original blog post begins “Boxen started nearly a year ago as a project called “The Setup” — a pipe dream to let anyone at GitHub run GitHub.com on their development machine with a single command.”

It was this line specifically which implied that Boxen is used to emulate the production environment in OS X and spurred my comment.
