Developer - Before Local Dev? Don’t want it on all
the time. 1 VM? Mixing Libraries, Dependencies, etc. Multiple VMs: Painful to manage, GBs Saturday, October 20, 12
Developer - After A dedicated, disposable, consistent development environment... per
project! Saturday, October 20, 12
Saturday, October 20, 12
Organization - Before Fixed/shared dev? Developers like different tools Onboarding?
Long time from hire to productivity Saturday, October 20, 12
Organization - After Providing consistent local development leads to smoother
deployments, drastically shortens on- boarding time, and puts no regulations on developer tools. Saturday, October 20, 12

WordPress Convenience Strength: Saturday, October 20, 12
“Everybody is using it.” Goal: Provide easy to use directions
to setup a dev environment for non- developers. Saturday, October 20, 12
“You hacked the core?” Goal: Provide your setup to vendors
with a clear acceptance path. Saturday, October 20, 12
“You don’t run any servers?” Goal: Provide a setup to
your clients where they can play with the site in- house. Saturday, October 20, 12
“You said this worked on 3.0?” Goal: Test one plugin
or theme across multiple versions of WordPress. Saturday, October 20, 12
