peakDev

The Reproducible Developer Environment designed for peak Function

1. Reproducible - recreate your developer environment quickly and automatically
2. Immutable in at least thinking - permanent changes to VM to be defined in vagrant file only
3. Minimalistic - reduced bandwidth/space required to reproduce plus less distractions - currently only tools for peak performance i.e. preferred editors & browsers.
4. Extendable with tools like Docker on the fly
5. Promotes Community - lets help each other create the best peak funcionable Developer environment there is.
   • Helpful docker files and scripts to show common extra toolsets
   • Well documented process to set up and use
   • Dynamic/evolving the project from what is learnt.
