git - Cloning Dev environment for minimum configuration fuss. -


i've been using single user profile since year dot dev / personal / etc, , it's been ok. i've spent lot of time playing new / different techs , spending vast amounts of time resolving conflicts, setting configurations , on.

there must easier way...cue lightbulb moment.

i think if set virtual machine solely dev purposes solve problem, configure once , if needed different environment clone vm, update , move on. no mess involved. suspect vast majority of may common practice.
i'm using osx , wondering if can still have shared pool of resources. i'd keep tools , res folder of main account , allow vms access save multiple downloads.

i guess i'm hunting best practices , solutions, workflows etc. idea?

-i've not played vms before other install(and not use) win via parallel.

i think should check vagrant. store tools: more matter of personal taste guess. can have machines share folder host system keep resources in 1 place. can idea isolate them within vms because may end different versions in different vms because of different dependencies.. , try store in 1 shared folder.

it makes sense backup virtual machines on external drive once set up. use keep headache away times pc breaks. one, install vm-player , start vm external drive.
