heartbreaker

Six limbs: four "legs" (two front limbs and two hind limbs) and two wings.

I want to develop a game and am considering collaborating with others, potentially even making it open-source.

To make this process smoother, I need to establish an easy-to-replicate development environment—one that can be set up by non-programmers (such as artists) but is also simple for me to configure so I can focus on actual development.

I’ve explored various options (Docker, Podman, Anaconda, NixOS, VMs), but the choices are overwhelming, and I’m unsure which one is best for my needs.

I’ve had partial success with a Fedora+i3wm virtual environment (VM), creating a plug-and-play experience. However, this setup requires extra space (~3GB for the OS) and includes software already installed on the host system. It also requires users to learn i3wm and possibly use the command line, which may not be ideal for everyone.

I would appreciate any advice on how to approach this effectively.

Edit: An example of things to setup:

• The right .Net Sdks version
• Git
• Git LFS
• Format Checks
• VScode (+ extensions)
• Godot (+ extensions)

Final: I have read your recommendations, researched your suggestions, and looked at what other projects use (Luanti uses docker). And I have finally decided that at least for now this might be a bit overboard. I will start with a simple setup script and setup files (such as for vscode) with instructions. And if I need to in the future I will most likely use Docker.

Quote from github:

OpenOMF is an Open Source remake of "One Must Fall 2097" by Diversions Entertainment. Since the original DOS game from 1994 uses IPX networking and is a pain to set up, the community needed a better solution to keep playing the game we love. Together with networking, we try to make it easier to play One Must Fall in its original glory on multiple platforms (Linux, Mac OSX, Windows, BSD to name a few).

On startup of my laptop, all wifi networks are detected, my laptop connects to the wifi, but I don't have internet and get wifi with a question mark icon.

Upon running the following command I have immediately an internet connection: resolvectl --no-pager status

Does anybody have a clue what is going on, and how to resolve it?
I am running Fedora Linux 40 (Workstation Edition) firmware Version 2.29 DNS4, DNS6 : Automatic

Edit: updated to fedora 41, and the issue seems to be resolved for now

Can I cultivate live food in the same tank as my Endler guppy? (I plan on adding other fish in the future). I have read that it is not smart to grow daphnia as they reproduce very quickly and outcompete for oxygen.

So is it possible to breed live food in the same tank to create some kind of biome, maybe with some other species? (Monia, fairy shrimp, Rotifer Brachionus)
