well i gotta admit, using #devcontainers in #devpod with #zed is actually kinda rad. i'm using it to tinker with #crystallang again tonight with my template repo. not the kinda workflow i ever thought i'd like but it reminds me of how i used to use #vagrant for this sort of thing back in the day with #ruby

my only annoyance is my container username is #vscode but whatever.

Behold the product of several hours of yak shaving! Here's a template repo for #devcontainers that include #crystallang with #devpod

https://github.com/cmhobbs/crystal-devcontainer-template

I initially wanted to use #podman as my provider but I got some weird permission issues that I'm too tired to fix.

To use this with #zed, I set my default editor to Zed in DevPod. I'm running this on #bluefin

I learned a lot but did nothing I set out to do. Look at me: I am the cloud now.

/cc @CrystalLanguage @UniversalBlue

well what started out as trying to explore #crystallang has turned into messing with #devpod. anyone know what happened to devpod pro?

since I rely on #girhub #codespaces at work, I really want to find the time to tinker with #devpod in #bluefin. especially since I've been using the #zed editor instead of #vscode.

last time I tried, I couldn't get it working, likely due to my ignorance of the dev process. I recall that it was moving to a #flatpak soon (or already has?) so maybe it's the time to give it a go.

I need to find a tutorial.

Ok, this to me is a cool way of working. A `Dockerfile`, a `.devcontainer.json` and it drops me in vscode with the shell in the vm, Devpod means open source, and no server to run.

`devpod-cli up .` with the following.

#DevPod anybody? Looks alright. Local workspaces, ssh provider, hope-and-sauce, not Microsoft.
Gonna try it.

I come relatively late to the subject of Remote Development Environments (also known as Cloud Development Environments). The main reason is that I haven’t worked in a development team for over six years. However, I’m now working for Loft Labs, and we have a RDE product: #DevPod. I wanted to understand our value proposition as I’ll be at @fosdem operating the DevPod booth.

"Hey, try DevPod instead, I've never had a problem using it with PHPStorm"

It did fucking work. How the hell.

I stumbled upon #Coder, which is a #DevContainer platform you can use in your own computer (much like #DevPod).

I'm going to give it a spin to see if I can connect remotely to a DevContainer on another computer. It "should" work, since it's made for this type of scenarios, unlike DevPod which focuses on local.

Devcontainers seem cool, but I'm not a big fan of Microsoft so went looking for an alternative to VSCode. Have been playing around with the open source #devpod and #neovim / lunarvim.

It should be possible to edit "remote" files in the docker container with my local lunarvim setup. I can successfully create remote folders via the netrw.vim 'd' mapping, but creating remote files with the '%' mapping seems to fail. A local buffer is still opened, but I get an error indicating the remote file does not exist

Anyone had any success here?

The #devContainer obsession continues, in part 2 of my blog series. This post is dedicated to DevPod. Not gonna lie: I totally got obsessed with trying to get my #OTel Demo dev container running on the DevPod k8s provider over the last week or so...to the point where I'm sure that it invaded my dreams.

That's okay, because it was a super fun learning experience. Happy reading!

Okay so I love the idea behind project-specific dev containers, but I'm constantly wishing to reply less on VS Code. DevPod is great for that, and then I can run nvim inside a remote container.

Is anyone aware of a CLI tool that will prompt you through the existing dev container templates and features, kind of like VS Code does? I'd also love the ability to add custom repos.

By the way, if you have problems with connecting a JetBrains app to a DevContainer, like "the host is not found", try going to the settings and changing SSH parsing to "legacy"

Excited to announce release v0.5.5 of #devpod !

Lots of new features and fixes both for UI and CLI

Give it a shot!

I got an early demo of #DevPod (https://devpod.sh/) from #Loft the other week and it looks pretty interesting. I haven't had time to play with it myself (ugh, there's never enough time) but I keep meaning to.

Excited to announce the first release of #DevPod by Loft Labs !
#DevPod is an #opensource tool that uses the #devcontainer json standard and lets you develop remotely, in any cloud or remote machine, with #VSCode #JetBrains or your preferred IDE!
