awesome-data-temporality VS pkgx

I’ve recently put together an awesome list about temporality, including: soft delete, time travel, slowly changing dimensions, and bitemporality. https://github.com/daefresh/awesome-data-temporality

I’m liking pkgx over asdf as it can activate project tooling upon cd’ing into a project folder.

https://pkgx.sh

I saw some alternatives being suggested and wanted to do the same (Also, so that I can look back at this item, through my comments :) ). Started using https://pkgx.sh/ lately. I know it has some baggage with tea.xyz and crypto, but it is also easy to get started with.

Secondly, our development environments must not drift, because then code may behave differently and a change could pass on our machine but fail in production. There are many tools for locking down environments, e.g nix, pkgx, asdf, containers, etc., and they all share the common goal of being able to lock down dependencies for an environment accurately and deterministically. And that needs to be enforced in our local workflow so we don't have to rely on CI environments for correctness. All developers must have environments that are effectively identical to what runs in CI (which itself should be representative of the production environment).

There are many ways this can be done (e.g nix, pkgx, asdf, containers, etc.), and we won’t get into which specific tools to use, because we'll instead cover the essential essence of preventing environment drift:

1. pkgx

Before diving in, it's a good idea to have a package manager handy, like tea. It'll handle your development environment and simplify your life!
