Getting the environment set up in the cloud is a pain vs just running in your environment imo. I think we’ll probably see both for the foreseeable future but I am betting on the worse-is-better of cli tools and ide integrations winning over the next 2 years.
- drdrey 1y agowith something like github copilot coding agent it's really not, the environment setup is just like github actions
- MattGaiser 1y agoIt’s surprisingly good. If you try Copilot in GitHub, it has had no issues setting up temporary environments every single time in my case. No special environment instructions required.
- mattnewton 1y agoIt has depended heavily on the project. New SPA for the web? No problem. Nontrivial application with three services each with their own container in a monorepo? ML inference code that requires cuda hardware? No chance.
- mvieira38 1y agoIt took me like half an afternoon to get set up for my workplace's monorepo, but our stack is pretty much just Python and MongoDB so I guess that's easier. I agree, it's a significant trade-off, it just enables a very convenient workflow once it's done, and stuff like having it make 4 different versions with no speed loss is mind-blowing. One nice perk on the ChatGPT Team and Enterprise plans is that Codex environments can be shared, so my work setting this up saved my coworkers a bunch of time. I pretty much just showed how it worked to my buddy and he got going instantly
