Cloud Dev Environments
Can I collaborate with my team?
Yes. You can invite other developers to your Dev Environment. Team members get their own access credentials, and you can control access levels for each person.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. ShopForge manages custom URLs and automatically provisions and renews SSL certificates for your domains.
Can I change the PHP version?
Yes. You can switch between PHP versions from your dev environment settings to match your project requirements or test compatibility.
Do I need to install anything locally?
No. Everything runs in the cloud. You just need a modern web browser. There's no need to install Docker, DDEV, PHP, MySQL, or any other dependencies on your local machine.
What is a Cloud-Based Dev Environment (CBDE)?
A CBDE is a complete Shopware development setup running in the cloud, accessible from any browser. It includes a Cloud IDE (VS Code), Shopware CLI, Composer, Adminer for database management, and Git — everything you need to develop Shopware plugins, themes, and customizations. CBDEs integrate directly with ShopForge's CI/CD pipelines and multi-environment workflows.
