Devbox v0.1.0

Instant, isolated, fully-loaded developer VMs. One command to go from zero to a complete development environment with 90+ pre-configured tools.

Highlights

  • Zero configuration — Auto-detects Go, Rust, Python, Node, Java, Ruby from project files
  • Safe by default — OverlayFS mounts your project read-only; changes require explicit devbox commit
  • 90+ tools — All from nixpkgs, including AI coding assistants (claude-code, aichat, aider)
  • 8 workspace layouts — Pre-built Zellij layouts for AI pair programming, TDD, fullstack, and more
  • 4 VM runtimes — Lima (macOS), Incus (Linux), Multipass, Docker
