This repository serves as a springboard for developers to launch fully-configured Magento 2 development environments using Gitpod. With the focus on convenience and efficiency, it facilitates seamless Magento 2 development workflows in the cloud.
To begin using this environment, you need to have a Gitpod account. Once you have your account set up, fork this repository and launch your workspace with a single click. Gitpod will read the configuration files and set up the environment accordingly.
Pre-configured Magento 2: A ready-to-code Magento 2 environment set up with sensible defaults to start coding immediately.
Development Toolkit: Includes ready to go tools that make you a super powered developer.
Automated Setups: On every Gitpod workspace launch, the environment automatically configures itself, eliminating the need for manual setup.
Cloud-based Development: Work from anywhere, on any machine, without the need to install and maintain a local development stack.
Portability: Whether you’re at home, in the office, or on the go, your development environment is accessible from any device with an internet connection.
Consistency: Every member of the team works within a standardized environment, reducing "it works on my machine" issues and streamlining collaboration.
Scalability: Resources can be scaled according to the project's demands without the need for physical hardware upgrades.
Security: With all code and data stored in the cloud, the security is centralized and can be managed more effectively than on individual local machines.
Cost-Efficiency: Reduce expenses on hardware and energy. Pay only for the resources you use, when you use them.
MailPit : email catching and debugging
Tab nine : A.I autocomplete code tool
Cypress : A great testing tool
Xdebug :
