I think that GitHub Codespaces are built on this technology. It should allow you (or any of your team mates) to start coding almost instantly, you need to install vscode and docker on your host machine and that's about it.
Rent a server in the cloud, install docker there, point your local docker to this cloud server and your laptop turns into a thin client.
That's a theory at least.
- arsenace 5y agoWarning though, it's ram hungry. Not gonna run well on a $5 droplet.
- austinjp 5y agoThanks for this warning. My local environment is an old ThinkPad t420 maxed out at 8.9Gi RAM. I do as much as possible in the terminal. If VS Code won't run well on a Droplet, it's unlikely to be an option for me.
