• Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (August 2026)

• How to get realistic datasets into GitHub codespaces?

• Going all-in on cloud-based development with realistic databases

  Over at Spawn we've been really excited to see the growth of Gitpod. We put together this article discussing remote development through 2020 and 2021 and how cloud-based development environments are an excellent alternative to consider over other options. Source: about 5 years ago

• Development databases in Docker aren’t good enough

  We believe that Spawn can be the solution to a lot of these pain points... I'd be really curious and grateful to get your feedback on the solution if you had the time. Source: about 5 years ago

• Development databases in Docker aren’t good enough
