Daytona is an open supply software for establishing growth environments in a single command.
“Organising a dev surroundings 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 infrequently working 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 really 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 known as Workspaces and they’re reproducible, that means that configurations and settings will be carried out as soon as after which carried over. At the moment, Workspaces are based mostly on the Dev Container customary, 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 likewise has a built-in Internet 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 beneath 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 routinely creates a VPN connection from the shopper machine to the event surroundings. This connection additionally gives entry to all ports within the growth surroundings, which eliminates the necessity for establishing port forwarding.
In response to a weblog put up written by Burazin, the venture reached 4,000 stars on GitHub inside 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 title, which in June obtained $5 million in seed funding to develop the venture.
