A ready Linux workspace for every project.
The MAIT image is the ready-made Linux system your project runs in. When you start a project, you land in a workspace that already has the MAIT tools, a terminal that keeps your sessions alive, and the everyday developer utilities.
The image supplies the base tools. Prepare the project configuration, storage and access required by your chosen setup, then open the environment and start an available coding agent. Keep important files in the project storage you intend to preserve.
What you gain over building each environment by hand.
The same base for everyone
A problem seen on one machine can be reproduced on another
- Typical alternative
- Each person building their own Linux setup
- Here
- Every project starts from the same prepared system
The MAIT tools are already there
Configure your agent to use the tools already installed
- Typical alternative
- Installing each tool yourself
- Here
- The tools come inside the workspace
Your files stay yours
No shared password or fixed account, and files you write belong to you
- Typical alternative
- Files owned by a different account
- Here
- The working account matches yours on your computer
Only what the project needs
The base stays small and the same for everyone
- Typical alternative
- A heavy system with every language
- Here
- Project toolchain versions are selected per project; the base can include language runtimes used by system tools
You decide when it changes
An update happens when you choose it
- Typical alternative
- Always following the latest
- Here
- The release is part of the project's settings
Nothing to build before you start.
The first start needs a connection to download the image. Once the image is cached and the project environment is built, it can start without registry access. Model calls, downloads and remote services still need their own network connections. The image does not sign you in to a model provider or start an agent for you: you do that yourself.
