Yesterday, I read a post by Kevin Quillen<\/a> titled 'DDEV being considered as the \"official\" Drupal development environment'.<\/p>\n\n I've been a DDEV user, and I've also used most, if not all, of the other popular Drupal development environments.<\/p>\n\n These days, I use my own Docker Compose-based setup<\/a>, but I feel having an official development environment would be an excellent move for the Drupal community and project - and for new Drupal users, evaluators and contributors in particular.<\/p>\n\n Anything that lowers the barrier to using or contributing to Drupal is a good thing and allows for more focused documentation and a simpler onboarding experience, similar to what other projects have - such as Laravel with Homestead, Valet and now, Sail.<\/p>\n\n Instead of multiple similar projects creating the same features and fixing the same issues, there could be an opportunity to collaborate or even combine projects and resources in the future.<\/p>\n\n If your company or team already uses another option, you can continue to use it.<\/p>\n\n If you have an existing solution, I don't think it will be removed or abandoned in the near future.<\/p>\n\n But, for new Drupal users and teams, one official development environment would be a big plus.<\/p>\n\n ",

But what about existing teams and projects?<\/h2>\n\n
