Daytona is an open supply software for establishing improvement environments in a single command.
“Organising a dev surroundings can really feel like beginning a automobile within the 1900s—participating the handbrake, adjusting the gas valve, combination management, spark advance, choke, and throttle, turning the ignition, and infrequently 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 deal with what actually issues—writing code and constructing progressive options,” Ivan Burazin, CEO and co-founder of Daytona, wrote in a weblog publish.
Improvement environments in Daytona are known as Workspaces and they’re reproducible, that means that configurations and settings might be completed as soon as after which carried over. At the moment, Workspaces are based mostly on the Dev Container normal, however the undertaking’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 kind of machine, together with native, distant, cloud-based, bodily service, VM, or any x86 or ARM structure.
It helps VS Code and JetBrains regionally, and likewise has a built-in Internet IDE. It additionally provides integrations with a number of Git suppliers, together with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Bitbucket Server, Gitea, Health, Azure DevOps, and AWS CodeCommit.
A number of undertaking repositories can exist beneath one Workspace, in order that builders utilizing a microservices structure can simply use Daytona for his or her improvement wants.
It additionally provides reverse proxy capabilities to allow collaboration amongst builders and streamline suggestions loops.
For safety functions, throughout setup, it mechanically creates a VPN connection from the consumer machine to the event surroundings. This connection additionally offers entry to all ports within the improvement surroundings, which eliminates the necessity for establishing port forwarding.
In line with a weblog publish written by Burazin, the undertaking reached 4,000 stars on GitHub inside the first week of the undertaking being open sourced. Now it’s at practically 8,000 stars and has 39 builders contributing to it.
The open-source undertaking is constructed and maintained by an organization of the identical title, which in June acquired $5 million in seed funding to develop the undertaking.
