How is this different from GitPod?
GitPod is awesome. Drupal Forge (DF) is very similar to it in many ways. Here are the similarities and differences:
- Like GitPod, DF Cloud Dev Environments (CDE) give you VS Code and let you create Drupal Dev sites.
- Like GitPod, you can instantly preview your code changes without committing your code.
- Like GitPod, you can un-pause your sites and continue where you left off.
- Unlike GitPod, you can create as many Drupal Dev environments as you like.
- On DF, Dev sites can be saved for as long as you like for free.
- On DF, there's no time limit on how many hours a free Dev site is used (active) in a month.
- On DF, the browser-based VS Code IDE (aka Cloud IDE), comes pre-installed with Composer and Drush.
- On DF, you get full access to the MySQL database with PhpMyAdmin - a browser-based db admin tool.
- On DF, you can invite and collaborate with other developers for parallel programming.
- On DF, you can download your site and use it on your Local Dev Environment.
- On DF, you can go live with your site - deploy it to your Digital Ocean or Light Sail server and connect your custom URL to it. After that, you can use your DF site as your Dev site.
