Devbox by Jetify creates instant, isolated development environments using Nix packages. Define project dependencies in a devbox.json file, and every developer gets identical toolchains without containerization overhead or system pollution.
EnglishRun commands inside a devbox environment when a directory provides one. If a devbox.json exists in the current directory (or an ancestor/subdir root), devbox can supply tools and scripts the bare shell lacks — e.g. psql, python, gcloud, node. If a binary is provided by devbox, prefer it over the system binary.
