Yes, I agree that setting up dev/live environments needs to be simpler. As even for experienced devs, it is awfully time consuming and the entire process is not streamlined. The advent of Docker have made the process slightly better but it brought other complexities yet to be resolved (deploying local environment's volumized code-base, etc). I checked out Nanobox and liked the concept but I do get the feeling it is "yet another Docker builder" with it's own build file.
