Development Environment

What is a development environment? 🤔

A development environment in software and web development is a workspace for developers to make changes without breaking anything in a live environment. 

The development environment is often seen as a developer's “everything-goes” workspace. When working with a development environment it is part of a tiered structure of environments, where changes are deployed through different environments before reaching a live website. A typical environment structure includes a local, a development, a staging, and a live environment, but it can include more or fewer environments depending on the needs and processes of those developing the website.

In some cases, the term "development environment" is used to refer to an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). An integrated development environment is often used as a programming tool to assist the developer. It is the software suite used by developers and is designed to maximize productivity and efficiency for the developer.

The purpose of a development environment is to have a place for a developer to test anything they want without worrying about it affecting any end-users or content editors working on a live website. In most cases, a development environment is set up on a local machine or server, where the website’s source code is downloaded, so it is ready to be changed and modified. To help with the development process an integrated development environment (IDE) is often used to speed up the process and make a developer more productive
