Lando is a powerful open-source local development tool that simplifies development environments and streamlines workflows with Docker-based containers.

Lando is a powerful open-source local development tool designed to simplify the setup of development environments and streamline workflows using Docker-based containers. It provides developers with an efficient way to manage complex configurations, reducing the need for manual setup and enabling faster iteration.

Key Features:

  • Service Abstraction: Lando abstracts the complexity of Docker by offering predefined recipes for common development use cases, such as Drupal, Laravel, WordPress, and more.
  • Command Execution Automation: Developers can execute complex commands without writing custom Dockerfiles or using long docker exec commands. For example, running lando yarn add express installs dependencies directly in the container.
  • Utility Configurations: Lando handles common configuration challenges like proxying, cross-container networking, file permissions, and SSL certificate management, ensuring a smooth development experience.
  • Cross-Platform Compatibility: Works seamlessly across different operating systems, providing consistent behavior for developers regardless of their environment.

Audience & Benefit: Ideal for front-end developers, back-end engineers, DevOps specialists, and QA teams working on web applications or platforms such as WordPress, Laravel, Drupal, Node.js, Python, Ruby on Rails, and more. Lando helps users set up development environments faster, reduce errors, and focus on coding rather than configuration. It enables consistent, reliable workflows across different projects and team members, enhancing productivity and collaboration.

Lando can be installed via winget, making it easy to integrate into your existing development workflow.

README

Lando Core

These are the core libraries that power Lando. They are implemented in [@lando/cli] and things like Pantheon LocalDev and WordPress VIP CLI.

On a high level they serve as:

An abstraction layer Lando vastly reduces the complexity of spinning up containers by exposing only the most relevant config for a given "service" and setting "sane defaults". Lando also provides "recipes" which are common combinations of services and their tooling that satisfy a given development use case - e.g. Drupal, Python, Laravel, Dotnet, etc.

A superset Lando provides ways for developers to run complex commands, build steps and automation on their services without the hassle of custom Dockerfiles or long "docker exec" commands. Think lando yarn add express. Think clear my applications cache after I import a database. Think install this core-extension before my appserver starts and then composer install after it does.

A utility Lando handles some of the more arduous configuration required for a good Docker Compose setup - e.g. proxying, nice urls, cross-application networking (think Vue.js frontend talking to a separate Laravel backend), host-container file permission handling, file sharing, per-container SSL certificate handling, ssh-key handling, etc.

Basic Usage

const Lando = require('@lando/core');
const lando = new Lando(config);

// bootstrap and go
return lando.bootstrap(bsLevel).then(lando => {
  lando.getApp().init().then(() => cli.run(getTasks(config, cli.argv()), config));
});
const
