I also hate the Docker tagline that it "eliminates 'works on my machine' issues". I believe a tool like asdf would also achieve this (correct me if I'm wrong). Docker itself can go haywire depending on the machine and you're basically in hell fighting with it just to get your dev environment working. You essentially eliminate one problem in exchange for a variety of equally frustrating challenges.

Having the ecosystem of asdf plugins which are basically just shell scripts has been a huge boon. It's been a breeze to work with, and most of the plugins are well written.
Now, I've been contemplating switching to NixOS, but most version managers don't work at all with it due to dynamic linking. I absolutely love the idea of NixOS, but this has really bummed me out. I feel like the nix language is still a little clunky for general use, so as long as there is not a straightforward solution like having a tool-versions file I'm really hesitant to make the full switch.

Does asdf come with a plugin for asdf & quicklisp? would've preferred for the new guy on the block pay respect to the old guy on the block and used a different name..

Sadly, reuses the name of a completely unrelated common lisp tool.

Works great in itself, however, PostgreSQL version upgrade is quite hustle. It's plug-in area, though could have some protocol with the core to make it seamless. I didn't upgrade my postgres for a while (on 12.4 right now).
Not sure if it still requires you to do:
`POSTGRES_EXTRA_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS=--with-openssl LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include" asdf install postgres x.x`
And run `pg_upgrade` yourself moving data from previous version to the new one's directory.

Seriously through, it's pretty easy to create an asdf plugin, and it works great. But it would be great if there were a static executable to handle it all.
A couple projects out there come close, but need people to contribute code to finish the most useful functionality. One example is https://github.com/marcosnils/bin - the developer is fully in favor of improvements and added features, but needs someone with the free time to add them.

Sadly this is not available in windows so i had to use WSL to run everything. Development in windows is so wonky once you switched from unix based system

Convert all data / markup to s-expressions
Make all code lambda calculus in some paren form
No more "xml being manipulated by a scheme designed to look like imperative language" (javacript manipulating the DOM)
Thank you have a nice day.

Though asdf itself is language-agnostic, is it in practice used more for web-development or something?

My boss loves ASDF and I liked the idea but I tried to use it three times and failed
