Development Environment
A workspace where developers write, test, and debug code before it is moved to testing or production environments. It typically includes the local machine setup, IDEs, and local server instances.
Impact
Inconsistencies between the Development Environment and Production are the root cause of the "It works on my machine" syndrome, leading to deployment failures and bugs that are hard to reproduce.
Weinto take
We believe in Ephemeral Development Environments. Instead of maintaining a complex local setup, we spin up a full, fresh environment in the cloud (based on the production container image) for every task or branch. It guarantees parity and allows developers to code from anywhere on any device.
