Developer Workflow Tools
With the right tools, a developer can write more code, make fewer mistakes, and innovate faster than anyone else. With 100% cloud-based development tools, you have everything you need from the get go.
GitLab Partnership
Coupling our support of open source and our belief in working with the best, Acquia has partnered with GitLab to bring the best developer tools to the Acquia platform. Our Drupal-optimized GitLab comes with many Drupal optimizations out of the box: Automated updates, Composer support, static code analysis, code style verification, CI/CD pipelines, and more.
Automatic Updates
Regular code updates are a necessary part of life, but we can make that work easier on you. Automatic code updates will create merge requests with the updates and a QA environment for you. Just review and accept; now you can get back to the fun stuff.
Cloud IDE
Code in the cloud with Cloud IDE. Cloud IDE has everything a developer needs and integrates deeply with Acquia platform. With dedicated resources, full support for Xdebug, CLI access with common tools, and a fast connection in the data center, you can spin up a full IDE within a few minutes at any time.
Full CI/CD Process
Building, testing, and deploying is much better when you have a CI/CD process in place. You know what’s even better than that? When it’s set up and managed for you so you get the benefits of a modern development process without the trouble of maintaining it.
Code Scaffolding
Sometimes it’s faster and easier to get a running start. Code scaffolding tools can help you generate standard boilerplate structure for your code following best practices. A quick command, select a few options, and your code is started for you.
Lando Integration for Local Development
Prefer to work on your local machine? Sounds great. We’ve partnered with Lando to provide an Acquia-specific recipe for local development. Your machine, your way — the right way.
