> DevPod is the first and only tool for creating and managing dev environments that does not require a heavyweight server-side setup. I guess either "dev environment" means something different to what I understand by the term, or Nixpkgs is considered a "heavyweight server-side setup"?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Vagrant was fantastic pre-Docker and is still arguably more useful for certain cases, but I recall having issues running it last I tried. Based on the website, VirtualBox still lacks stable ARM64 support. Would "boxes" downloaded from the Vagrant cloud need to be built for ARM64 as well, or does it emulate?
It does not emulate. My org has been deprecating Vagrant ever since IT started issuing Apple Silicon as an option. Replacement is Docker Compose, or cloud VMs for software with heavy disk I/O.
Now there is overhead for mounting local volumes into the container, but I’ve found them to be negligible on my Apple Silicon Mac’s in the last year or 2. (Apple seems to have been the one to fix it with their new virtualization framework which docker for Mac supports).
Now back when they first added their APFS file system things were atrociously slow when it came to Disk IO (as in 10x slowdowns or more) and there were various workarounds but it seems resolved to me now.
Thank you.
What are some of the competitors in this space? - Gitpod, a SaaS competitor to Codespaces. http://gitpod.io - Coder, which I guess is the more enterprisey self-hosted Codespaces alternative? https://coder.com - This project, Devpod, seems to be a polished experience but not centralized like Coder. - I recently stumbled upon Recode, which looks like a more indie take on the problem. https://github.com/recode-sh/cli
It's a lot older but I would say Vagrant intersects with this space https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant Possibly devenv, as well.. Though I haven't personally tried it https://devenv.sh/

I have a mix of jetbrains, vs code and vs ent devs, would be great to unify their development experience a little

Not only that, when using Firefox (Chrome seems fine), it's selected by default on Windows and Linux.
FF unfortunately does not support detecting the OS reliably...

Is there IDE support for full fat Visual Studio? I recall them adding support for the devcontainer concept last year sometime? (I could be wrong, and/or it may have been a limited set of capabilities, you know MS) I have a mix of jetbrains, vs code and vs ent devs, would be great to unify their development experience a little
