What's Changed since v0.1.0

Zellij Session Management

  • devbox shell now reattaches to an existing zellij session instead of creating a new one each time
  • devbox shell --layout <name> switches to a different layout (kills and recreates the session)
  • devbox shell --restart recreates the session from scratch
  • Dead sessions (from Ctrl+q) are automatically cleaned up on next attach
  • Detach without killing: Ctrl+o then d

AI Coding

  • Claude Code now launches with --dangerously-skip-permissions for uninterrupted AI coding inside the sandbox
  • README repositioned as an AI-coding-first sandbox with security emphasis

Developer Experience

  • Host ~/.gitconfig is now synced into the VM during provisioning (user.name, user.email, aliases carry over)
  • CI workflow now only runs on pull requests (no more failing CI on every push)
  • Full codebase passes cargo fmt --check and cargo clippy -- -D warnings

Devbox v0.1.0

Instant, isolated, fully-loaded developer VMs. One command to go from zero to a complete development environment with 90+ pre-configured tools.

Highlights

  • Zero configuration — Auto-detects Go, Rust, Python, Node, Java, Ruby from project files
  • Safe by default — OverlayFS mounts your project read-only; changes require explicit devbox commit
  • 90+ tools — All from nixpkgs, including AI coding assistants (claude-code, aichat, aider)
  • 8 workspace layouts — Pre-built Zellij layouts for AI pair programming, TDD, fullstack, and more
  • 4 VM runtimes — Lima (macOS), Incus (Linux), Multipass, Docker

Install

# Download the binary for your platform
chmod +x devbox-*
mv devbox-* ~/.local/bin/devbox

# Or build from source
git clone https://github.com/ethannortharc/devbox.git
cd devbox && cargo install --path .

Quick Start

cd my-project
devbox            # Auto-detect and create sandbox
devbox doctor     # Verify system setup
