Patterns for Local Development Nirvana

Our Journey

At PreviousNext (the team that built Skpr), we've been on a decade-long journey towards local development environment nirvana.

From artisanally-crafted snowflake workstation configurations to consistent prepackaged bundles, it's safe to say we've accumulated a wealth of learnings over the years.

I recently spoke at the annual DrupalSouth conference, describing this journey and what we discovered along the way.

Learnings

In this talk, I cover the following key points:

  • The time to 200 metric
  • Container image composition
  • Localhost networking as the default
  • Configuration (settings.php)
  • Database images
  • Performance testing

For more information on these topics, please read my PreviousNext blog post and watch my talk on YouTube below.
