Charter
This working group is chartered with improving the local development environment with an eye towards faster development and easier testing.
In the short term, this will include the migration from devstack, the current environment setup, to Tutor, a project developed and maintained by TCRIL with edX/OCM support, as well as investigation into alternatives to Docker Desktop.
...
Docker Desktop requiring a paid license for businesses over 250 employees or over than $10 million in annual revenue
Devstack not working on the new M1 macs
New OpenEdx releases running on Tutor instead of Devstack
TCRIL switching to Tutor as the preferred environment for openEdx
Why Tutor?
Tutor is the only fully supported non-native installation for OpenEdX with official support from tCRIL. It is also the only installation for OpenEdX releases after Maple. As 2U employees, using Tutor for development will allow us to more closely mirror production instances as we develop and test and empower us to better help community development.
