A utility from Micrantha for creating reusable isolated development environments.
This is basically an easy to use abstraction around docker with some extra perks.
- file synchronization that follows symlinks
- keep package manager and system dependencies isolated from host
- reusable state that can also be persisted as a ‘sandcastle’ for other sandboxes
- consistent user file permissions with the host
- better time tracking with taskwarrior timewarrior scripts
- write it how I would want it (did not like other tools)
If you have mastered mouseless programming for whatever reason you will like this tool.
If not, it is a good reason to try coding in neovim. The language server protocol from Microsoft makes it like a full lightweight IDE these days.
I have decided to release to source as a profile building opportunity if you would like to check it out or contribute (I reserve the right to change my mind).
