    Another Kubernetes-based option.

    Sealos: https://sealos.io

    Covers development, testing and production environments.

    Also open source: https://github.com/labring/sealos

    Worth noting some are cloud-only whereas others like Jetify's Devbox work locally and in the cloud.

    I wrote about that years ago and the article is as valid today as it was back then, IMHO.

    I have been using Project IDX from Google since last few days. idx.dev Works fairly well in Chrome, has a lot of issues around clipboard in firefox. For beginners its really great as it has some good Hello World template which is usualy the friction for adopting new tool. Also one click deployment and key management is really cool.

    Given the website name, I expected them to put more focus on the devcontainer spec as a local alternative. While it's not quite as consistent as running containers server-side, I've seen on-boarding go from a workday or two to before-lunch after properly setting up a devcontainer.json. Honestly, at this point it's more trouble explaining how to set up an SSH key than the development environment.

    That being said, I would've preferred it if they were based on something Nix-ish rather than full-on Docker containers, but alas.
