Devbox can also run services too. Both products use an awesome process runner called process-compose (https://github.com/f1bonacc1/process-compose/ https://github.com/f1bonacc1/process-compose/) which is worth checking out (it's even built with nix!)
- tripdout 3y agoI think the ability to run services is really what separates Devbox from other related Nix-based dev-env solutions. Essentially taking what you get from the NixOS-specific configuration.nix options (like for example `services.mediawiki.enable = true`) and letting that be per-project, per-directory, is super useful.
