How is this different from Simplytest.me?
Simplytest is a great service. We were in fact inspired by it. If you have not tried it, you should try it out. Seriously. Here's the link. Drupal Forge is a community service - just like Simplytest. Here are the similarities and differences:
- Like Simplytest, Drupal Forge (DF) lets you create 6 hour temporary disposable Drupal Dev sites.
- On DF, you can optionally add a Cloud Dev Environment (CDE) to your Drupal Dev sites.
- With a CDE, your Dev sites are automatically paused at after 6-hours instead of getting deleted.
- You can un-pause your sites and continue where you left off.
- You can keep extending the working life of your Dev sites (in increments of 6 hours).
- With a CDE, you get a browser-based VS Code IDE (aka Cloud IDE), pre-installed with Composer and Drush.
- Full access to the MySQL database with PhpMyAdmin - a browser-based db admin tool.
- Invite and collaborate with other developers on the Code IDE - think parallel programming.
- Download your site and use it on your Local Dev Environment.
- Go live with your site - deploy it to an external server on Digital Ocean, Light Sail, etc. Connect your custom URL to it. Maintain the Dev site on DF.
