These are my instant development environments that I use for daily coding. This was originally
based on C9 IDE, published as an image that got pulled over 1M+ times, and here is the article that described how to setup a powerful self-hosted IDE in the cloud. Now I focus on a reusable environment that can either be used from the command line, as a container, online deployment, editing with Vim, or easily allows you to use VSCode. But not limited to direct access, as it includes Tailscale to allow remote connectivity and exposing services to other (shared) machines in the same tailnet or on the public internet. These images are compatible with Distrobox and perhaps Toolbx (since these images rely on sudo
there are known issues/rough edges), and can be imported to WSL2 (Windows) and Termux (Android).
Note
All images use gbraad
as user and have my dotfiles installed.
