Differences from Docker

Docker is indeed very good. But there are also many people who just want an out-of-the-box PHP/NodeJS/Java/Go/Python applications running environment.

Compared to Docker, FlyEnv is more intuitive and ready-to-use. FlyEnv does not use virtual containers, it is a native application. All modules run as native static binaries, which is faster and consumes fewer resources(Especially on macOS and Windows). Configuration files and log files are also easier to view and modify.

Differences from MAMP Pro/Laravel Herd/XAMPP...

Compared with other applications, FlyEnv is more flexible. FlyEnv itself implements a set of service running framework. Internal services can be from any source. Homebrew / Macports / APT / DNF / official static binary / third-party static binary... Version update will be more timely. Unlike some Apps, you can only use some outdated versions unless you wait for App updates.

The running settings and configuration files of each service of FlyEnv are also closer to the real production deployment environment. They can be easily applied to the production environment.
