ddenv

ddenv (Denis’ Developer Environment) is a tool for maintaining a local environment for development.

[!CAUTION] This software is a pre-alpha work in progress. Do not use just yet.

Requirements

  • Homebrew
  • fish shell

[!NOTE] In the future, this will work for bash and zsh as well.

Install it: brew install denisdefreyne/ddenv/ddenv.

Next, create a ddenv.yaml file which contains the list of dependencies to manage:

up:
  - homebrew: overmind
  - ruby: 3.3.0
  - bundle
  - node: 20.12.2
  - npm

Lastly, run ddenv up.

Now your local developer environment is ready to be used.
