Lxdev - quick dev environments for linux using LXD. Disposable, composable, simple

A fun weekend project that I built to manage development environments.
lxdev is a command line tool to create development containers that have audio/X11 support. Each container gets a base configuration, plus optional add-ons (like Javascript support or Slack).

Whipped up a quick demo video:


(the audio is about an octave too high – argh Linux!!)

Would love comments about the lxd/lxc usage, I’m a beginner, I’m sure I’m missing fun tricks to make this easier.
