We still support a local Virtualbox/Vagrant VM for the "offline" case, but that's the very environment that we're actively migrating away from. Realistically speaking the thought of an "offline" environment is impossible - our users need regular updates of our repositories, which requires a network connection; and of course SO/Google is a necessity :-). Also, at our scale we're running into the limits of Apple's machines. There's just not enough RAM for all of (Jetbrains Something), (Local VM with tons of services), (some ARM emulator), (40 Chrome tabs), (Slack). We can't provide a good local dev experience going forward. Between MiFi and MOSH (a UDP, mobile optimized SSH "alternative"), I think we can support the transit use case without using a local VM.
