Daytona is an open supply instrument for organising growth environments in a single command.
“Organising a dev setting can really feel like beginning a automobile within the 1900s—partaking the handbrake, adjusting the gas valve, combination management, spark advance, choke, and throttle, turning the ignition, and sometimes operating into points. With Daytona, it’s like beginning a automobile in 2024: any driver can simply push a button and go. Enabling builders to give attention to what actually issues—writing code and constructing modern options,” Ivan Burazin, CEO and co-founder of Daytona, wrote in a weblog put up.
Growth environments in Daytona are referred to as Workspaces and they’re reproducible, that means that configurations and settings might be carried out as soon as after which carried over. Presently, Workspaces are primarily based on the Dev Container normal, however the venture’s documentation claims that there’s the potential to base it on different requirements down the road, like Dockerfiles, Docker Compose, Nix, and Devfile.
Daytona can run on any sort of machine, together with native, distant, cloud-based, bodily service, VM, or any x86 or ARM structure.
It helps VS Code and JetBrains domestically, and in addition has a built-in Net IDE. It additionally gives integrations with a number of Git suppliers, together with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Bitbucket Server, Gitea, Health, Azure DevOps, and AWS CodeCommit.
A number of venture repositories can exist below one Workspace, in order that builders utilizing a microservices structure can simply use Daytona for his or her growth wants.
It additionally gives reverse proxy capabilities to allow collaboration amongst builders and streamline suggestions loops.
For safety functions, throughout setup, it robotically creates a VPN connection from the shopper machine to the event setting. This connection additionally gives entry to all ports within the growth setting, which eliminates the necessity for organising port forwarding.
In line with a weblog put up written by Burazin, the venture reached 4,000 stars on GitHub throughout the first week of the venture being open sourced. Now it’s at practically 8,000 stars and has 39 builders contributing to it.
The open-source venture is constructed and maintained by an organization of the identical identify, which in June obtained $5 million in seed funding to develop the venture.
