Ask HN: Docker, Vagrant? What's your dev environment setup look like?

I use Cloud9 IDE for dev, it is a collaborative web app that runs the env inside a Docker container and has clone/revert capability. For MS related projects, I use PaperSpace, a windows VM in the cloud, they offer Enterprise plans with advanced provisioning.

You can also run the open source version of C9 locally.

I don't know how far you can practically go with keeping the environments consistent, especially for performance. It can be resource costly to allocate a clone of Prod for every dev. Depending on your stack, it might be better to auto-test on a dev server on a commit cycle.

Thank you. I'll check c9 out. It's unfortunate that this submission did not make it past 'new'.
