Codespaces seems like magic. I've been using it for personal projects, and it is fantastic to do simple edits in a browser on the go. That's not the intended use case, though. The actual value is where you get to scale up and automate what used to be only on local workstations. The nightly builds with up-to-date dependencies and pre-pulled code get to going faster. Having a shared image encourages people to share all those local scripts that make things work where they may have just left them in a local `bin/` before. Onboarding scripts diverge and fragment workstations because employees that have been there longer ran old versions and never got the new updates. This lets everyone use the same update to date tools together. I'm excited to see where Github takes this. Tons of possibilities in now using Codespaces to create "local" environments composed of multiple machines. |
