On the synchronization front, Mutagen's only goal is to facilitate the synchronization of files (albeit with a focus on development-related settings and low-latency for a "real time" feel). It doesn't attempt to integrate with any higher-level tooling (except in the cases of Docker Desktop and Compose, which is facilitated via external projects). That sort of tooling, language, and framework-specific integration is a bit outside the project's target scope (and something that becomes very domain-specific).

Mutagen will, however, happily operate between different operating systems and architectures, so things like working with a remote amd64-based Docker engine from your local arm64-based laptop are totally possible.

Also, several external projects (such as DDEV[0] and Garden[1]) do use Mutagen as a low-level component in their stack to provide synchronization that does "know" a bit more about the framework that you're using.

Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to reply, and for the links to those other projects that use Mutagen!
