sail VS lando

Laravel Sail is a light-weight command-line interface for interacting with Laravel's default Docker development environment. Sail provides a great starting point for building a Laravel application using PHP, MySQL, and Redis without requiring prior Docker experience.

If this is your issue I can totally understand why it's closed. https://github.com/laravel/sail/issues/470

This is the default Dockerfile for the PHP 8.1 image that will be published to your project. Just add extra apt-get commands to install the extensions you need and then rebuild the images.

Update: I found in the laravel/sail repo that a bug was reported and a PR was created on it here: https://github.com/laravel/sail/issues/383

PHP 8.1 support added to Laravel Sail starting from v1.12.0. Meanwhile, they have replaced the mysql:8.0 Docker image with mysql/mysql-server:8.0 image in this pull request. Keeping all these things in mind, let's update the Laravel Sail to the latest version to use PHP 8.1.

I recommend using sail, it is pretty reasonable and for non laravel projects just get some inspiration from sail's github repo: https://github.com/laravel/sail/tree/1.x/runtimes/8.0

If it supports Docker, it can be installed in Laravel Sail (I have already submitted a PR for this)

This has been my experience. On top of this, it seems that there has been a recent change to Sail regarding Xdebug that has rendered every write-up I could find obsolete; https://github.com/laravel/sail/commit/5117805061fc9fb3e224beb7b69c092029761733

Still remember https://lando.dev/ ?

I see folks recommending Docker and DDev, which are fine options from my experience, but I also wanted to mention Lando. The team I'm on recently adopted it as part of moving our WordPress network to something deployable, and it has gone pretty smoothly.

Learn about lando.dev (docker container recipes) and how you can run pantheon configured drupal apps on your workstation with it.

Here at Jüssi, we use Docker and Lando as a solution for local development environments and manage Drupal's configurations via Composer. Therefore, we use the 'lando' command as a prefix in the commands below.

Lando (which runs on Docker), which runs on Windows 10 (work) or 11 (home) on WSL2.

https://lando.dev/ — Local environment with recipes and docker.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Lando. It uses docker/docker compose under the hood, but adds a further layer of abstraction to make it even easier. Comes with base recipes out of the box for Drupal/WordPress/etc.

Lando, https://lando.dev, has support for pull/push to some hosts.

The most popular is https://ddev.com. Lots of people also use https://lando.dev. I'm old-school, so I tend to use https://www.mamp.info/en/mamp/mac/

I spend most of my day writing PHP, HTML, CSS, and JS running the apps I build and support in Docker via Lando (https://lando.dev) (I mainly build and support Drupal web applications)
