What if you had a package.json for your entire development environment? That's dev.nix.

We use Nix in IDX so in one file you can declare the needed runtimes and tools and most importantly their versions. This file is checked into source so anyone contributing to the project has everything they need when the workstation boots up.

Let's dive in.

Project IDX has always supported working with Github-based projects, but we’ve heard from many of you that you'd also like to see us support both Gitlab and Bitbucket-based repos.

That’s why we're launching our early preview of Gitlab and Bitbucket support, now available to all IDX users. Watch the video below for walkthroughs and details.

Learn how Project IDX allows you to enable Docker support with just one line of code so you can quickly and easily customize your workspace.

Learn how to use some of Project IDX's built-in Al-assistance features to help speed up and refine your developer workflow, all backed by Gemini, Google's latest and most capable Al model.

Giving you in-browser access to an iOS simulator is definitely one of the bigger features we announced with Project IDX last week!

This simulator isn't just for mobile apps, it's great for web apps too. Check out the video below that shows how easy it is to test a web app across desktop and mobile devices!

💜 Rolling out soon and already available for some in Project IDX: a new multimodal Gemini template (gemini-pro-vision) in JS and Python! (Attached video skips a couple steps, e.g. getting your API key from Google AI Studio).
