Forem has been using Gitpod for a while now, but the configuration has been broken for I'm not sure how long.
Today I merged some bug fixes that gets us back up and running with Gitpod, a super-fast way to load up a development environment.
This has a huge impact on folks interested in contributing to the Forem project. Typically when I've pair programmed on the DEV Twitch stream with folks, there's usually 2-3 hours working with them to get the project up and running locally. Now, with Gitpod, that time goes to 5-7 minutes with no intervention from me or a colleague. 😎
Just in time for my CodeLand workshop and Hacktoberfest. Let's go!
