The Framework is the most exciting laptop I've used

You forget the computer is there! I have been so overwhelmingly happy with my M1 (with RAM upgrade) as a dev machine. It's THAT good. My co-workers cry when they see how fast my docker containers build.

Would love to get some feedback on M1 for development.

I am used to work in Linux OS VM(Virtualbox and Vagrant in MacOS) and do most PHP/Python web development. It seems that Virtualbox won't be supported and There is only one Linux VM option available [UTM](https://github.com/utmapp/UTM)

I would hate to invest too much time for a new dev environment just for M1. How's your experience?

I wish I felt like this about the M1 that work got me. I have a list of issues but the best indictment of how bad it is is:

- a typescript React recompile causes music playing to buffer for a couple of seconds.

I wanted to love it but I much prefer my mid level Intel based MacBook Pro

That's very odd, I compile a TypeScript react project practically all day while I'm working on it and haven't noticed anything. Could be legitimately faulty if you're seeing a load of issues.

I compile React frequently in a docker container on my M1 MacBook Air and I, similarly to the other commenter, get no such problems.
