Codespaces but open-source, client-only, and unopinionated

• devpod

  27 7,659 9.7 Go

  Codespaces but open-source, client-only and unopinionated: Works with any IDE and lets you use any cloud, kubernetes or just localhost docker.

  

It's not as native as you may think - it's made with Tauri (see https://github.com/loft-sh/devpod/tree/main/desktop). I agree that it feels great, though.

• Vagrant

  115 25,852 9.0 Ruby

  Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing development environments.

  

https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/blob/v2.3.7/CHANGELOG.m... ?

The changelog lists both improvements and bug fixes and there's even apparently some effort to port it away from ruby: https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/blob/v2.3.7/internal/cl...

• InfluxDB

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• cli

  11 583 0.0 Go

  A CLI to create remote development environments in your cloud provider account in seconds (by recode-sh)

  

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

• Code-Server

  395 65,274 9.2 TypeScript

  VS Code in the browser

• devenv

  88 3,410 9.8 Nix

  Fast, Declarative, Reproducible, and Composable Developer Environments

  

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

• core

  122 10,141 7.0 JavaScript

  Online IDE powered by Visual Studio Code ⚡️ (by stackblitz)

  

• hocus

  11 3,112 8.9 TypeScript

  🪄 Spin up ready-to-code, disposable dev environments on your own servers. Self-hosted alternative to Gitpod and Github Codespaces.

  

• WorkOS

• swiss-chocolatey-lab

  1 2 10.0 PowerShell

  Create disposable dev environment VM's for GitHub repositories

Same. I started building an automated solution for building gamedev environments in VM’s[1] but I can’t help but think there should be a better way.

• codesandbox-client

  366 12,894 9.5 JavaScript

  An online IDE for rapid web development

  

• tilt

  49 7,280 8.8 Go

  Define your dev environment as code. For microservice apps on Kubernetes.

  

It's not a direct competitor, but we use https://tilt.dev/ at my company for local and remote development.

• toolbox

  109 2,273 9.1 Shell

  Tool for interactive command line environments on Linux (by containers)

  

Seems like toolbox is also in this space; https://github.com/containers/toolbox

• devbox

  47 7,456 9.7 Go

  Instant, easy, and predictable development environments

  

Local first, cloud optional is the only way (IMHO) we're going to get people off their local laptop development setups.

We need to support local dev environments first, with the exact same config a developer can then move to the cloud.

See https://github.com/jetpack-io/devbox for how this can be achieved and https://www.mikenikles.com/blog/dev-environments-in-the-clou... for my thoughts after 3 years of working in this space.

• vcluster

  70 5,577 9.7 Go

  vCluster - Create fully functional virtual Kubernetes clusters - Each vcluster runs inside a namespace of the underlying k8s cluster. It's cheaper than creating separate full-blown clusters and it offers better multi-tenancy and isolation than regular namespaces.

  

Yep, as we see it they compliment each other quite well. DevPod takes your workspace to the cloud and DevSpace let's you develop against your Kubernetes cluster - potentially the same one you used to start your workspace.

Internally we use both in our development setup, spinning up remote workspaces using DevPod, installing DevSpace and kind into the devcontainer, then using DevSpace to develop against the cluster. See the vcluster setup[1] as an example

• projector-docker

  12 2,094 5.7 Shell

  Discontinued Run JetBrains IDEs remotely with Docker

  

Although they've basically closed source it since release, Jetbrains Projector was a fantastic tool I've used a lot in the past for that - Just spin up a docker container on my home server and pull out my ipad keyboard

https://github.com/JetBrains/projector-docker

Unfortunately, It's hard to tell if JetBrains Gateway will keep all of the remote dev features or not.
