As someone who has responsibility over how shitty the local development experience is for my org, I recently saw GitHub Workspaces and am curious if that could be a viable option.
- bluehatbrit 5y agoI've been using GH Codespaces for a side project when on the go for a while now. When I'm travelling or recently when moving house I've been able to use my terrible but light weight laptop with vscode + gh codespaces. It's been a complete dream! When running the same project locally on the laptop it's slow and makes development a real pain but codespaces has given the laptop a new lease of life. I'm not sure if the price lines up well enough for a daily-drive for a company, but if I were managing dev environments for an org these days I'd probably jump to something similar. Perhaps something like a decent size EC2 on AWS where devs can tear it down and spin it up again to start from scratch within a couple minutes. Throw away dev environments feels like a game changer having used it for the past 6 months on-the-go.
