Docker-based Monorepo Local Development CLI

@evilkiwi/devon is a node-based CLI tool aiming to bridge the gap between production and local development for monorepos.

• Configure multi-command Scripts for common development workflows
• Automate trusted local SSL certificates out-of-the-box
• Generate .env files automatically based on the target environment
• Run production-grade images locally without having to touch docker commands
• Bootstrap existing Monorepos with intelligent initialization
• TypeScript definitions/configs

This package is available via NPM:

yarn global add @evilkiwi/devon

# or

npm install -g @evilkiwi/devon

You also need to have Docker installed on your local machine. It can be downloaded via docker.com.

If you want devon to automate generating and installing local SSL Certificates, you also must install mkcert.

You can view the online documentation here.
