Mutagen provides real-time file synchronization and flexible network forwarding for developers, extending the reach of local development tools to cloud-based containers and infrastructure.
Docker Acquires Cloud-Development Startup Mutagen
As part of its continued investment in the performance and
capabilities of Docker Desktop,
Docker has acquired Mutagen,
a startup focused on high-performance local and cloud-based
development.
Flexible transports
Mutagen works across local, server, and container infrastructure, including Docker® containers.
Cross-platform
Mutagen supports a broad range of platforms, handling their idiosyncrasies automatically while offering users full control.
Open-source
Mutagen is an open-source tool that gives your full control over your data, how it's transmitted, and where it's stored.
Fill in the gaps of remote development
Running containers in the cloud is easy, but editing code and accessing applications there is hard. Mutagen bridges the gap between your local development tools and code in the cloud.
Synchronize code
Move code in real-time with fast two-way file synchronization
Mutagen syncs files between arbitrary locations using a custom algorithm designed specifically for code and build products.
Performant
Low-latency filesystem watching and differential file transfers propagate code changes almost instantly.
Forward traffic
Connect to remote applications with powerful network forwarding
Mutagen supports forwarding TCP traffic, Unix domain sockets, and Windows named pipes between arbitrary endpoints.
Flexible
Mutagen's architecture allows arbitrary traffic flows, including remote-to-remote.
Adaptable
Mutagen can mix and match transport layer protocols, making it easy to connect disparate components.
Develop remotely
Unlock the full power of cloud-based development by making it feel local
With Mutagen, you can shift the workload from your laptop to cloud-based servers and containers.
