I’m not kidding! I hacked together a bunch of env vars, carefully ordered tar unpacking, and some chrooting for dev envs at Airbnb years ago. It’s effective.

- tambourine_man 4y agoSorry, sarcasm is hard on the web. I think you were/are into something. I though about it but never managed to build it.
- schaefer 4y agoBefore docker was invented, I worked on chroot based dev environments at work too (linux host), and I loved it. But I’ve never really touched Mac OS. Does Mac OS natively support this style of development? Do you know of anyone that’s blogging about it?
- tambourine_man 4y agoIt doesn’t. My hope was if Apple and Microsoft provided this feature, we could build a common foundation on top.
- tambourine_man 4y agoI'm wrong, turns out, chroot works on the Mac after all. Nice, that's a first step. I'll try to play with the idea
- schaefer 4y agoThanks for double checking. I really appreciate it. :)
