The Age Old Problem.
To work on a website, we need an easy way to run it on our local computer.*
What do you use to solve this problem?
Ok, local dev is great. But why change from MAMP/Vagrant/etc?
Pros:■ Good performanceCons:■ Websites don’t run on Mac OS X (prod parity)■ Tooling has unreliable versions■ Issues updating team tooling■ Not cross-platform
Existing Local Dev Solutions: Native(Ex: MAMP, XAMP, Acquia Dev Desktop)
Existing Local Dev Solutions: Virtual Machines(Ex: Drupal Quickstart)
Pros:■ Production Parity■ Easier to deploy/version toolingCons:■ All applications must run on same infrastructure■ Hard to test/debug new infrastructure■ Typically SLOW AS BALLZ
The Age Old Problem (Add.).
As web developers, we work with an increasing number of frameworks, hosting providers, and other tools. Setting up these tools is complex.
Dev Tool EXPLOSION.

● ~15 min install time● ~6 min Drupal install● ~Run 1 webserver● ~20 tools
● ~5 min install time● ~2 min Drupal install● ~Run plethora of containers● As many tools as you want
Can I run it on Windows?

Metaslide for demo:
1. Download app from Pantheon
2. Show environment parity
3. Show Solr/Redis config
4. HTTPS
What it all means
● Save tons of time● Use the tools you deserve● Production parity● Standardize your team, tools and flow● Use the latest and greatest
