The state of Drupal Development Environments panel discussion

Last year in Amsterdam we confirmed that everyone had their own favorite Drupal Development Tool. Is the same happening this year? Are we on the way to standardizing on top of something more uniform?

At DrupalCon Global the discussion went to another level and some numbers were revealed, that showed Lando, Docker, Docksal and DDEV, followed closely by DrupalVM to be the clear igniters of Drupal local development. So what is the picture today? Are there any novelties or new players? We will introduce here Cloud IDE and Launchpad. What are we doing on each tool's roadmaps and features that make people adhere to one versus the other? In this session, the main creators of different Drupal Development Environments will provide their story of why and what they are providing and the choices and progress they made since last year. The panel is an experienced technical team that will welcome your questions and be able to talk about a wide range of topics related to Drupal Development.
