Lando
Free, open-source local development tool that runs Docker-based development environments for web projects from a Landofile.
Lando is a free, open-source local development tool for web projects. It runs on the developer’s machine and is built on Docker container technology, so Docker Engine must be installed and running. The installers set up Docker when it is missing. The project is run by the Lando Alliance, a nonprofit organization based in Washington, D.C.
Lando installs with a setup script on macOS, Linux and WSL, with a PowerShell script on Windows, or from source. The CLI is written in JavaScript for Node.js. The repository lando/lando holds the releases; its CLI source sits in the lando/core submodule.
Worth knowing
Lando drives Docker rather than replacing it, so Docker’s own requirements apply on each operating system.
