EinTOPF

Simultaneously working on multiple software projects can be quite a handful at times, especially if they are located on different development platforms.

To your aid comes EinTOPF, a well-thought-out piece of software that makes it very easy for you to manage all your software projects, containers, applications and logs under a single roof.

The application itself undergoes a typical and speedy installation process, but to use it as intended, you need to make sure certain prerequisites are present on your computer's system: Vagrant, Git and VirtualBox.

Please note that the app offers to install VirtualBox when you first launch it, so you do not necessarily need to deal with that.

EinTOPF's interface can be best described as minimalist and this makes working with it a very straightforward process.

In a few words, it features a top toolbar that enables you to switch between the Apps, Container and Projects sections, as well as a side panel and the main one that both allow you to manage or create new projects.

The application's highlight is the fact that it bundles and combines some of the most powerful development tools.

Vagrant makes it possible for you to create portable environments, Git can help you create distributed systems and packs advanced version control options, while Docker offers you all the means to build, run and deploy apps to a wide array of platforms.

As and ending note, EinTOPF is a capable piece of software that, if given the chance, will surely reduce the overall development time.

It is not what would you call revolutionary, but it is clearly worth more than the sum of its parts. It enables you to work on multiple projects and with various development tools, all at the same. And, as a bonus, it looks good, too.
