What to expect from an ideal product

  1. Minimal creates identical development environments across all team members' machines, preventing the "works on my machine" problem that causes configuration drift
  2. The platform standardizes complex language stacks and toolchains automatically, so developers don't need to manually sync their local setups with team requirements
  3. Every environment is reproducible from a single configuration file, making it easy to onboard new team members without spending hours troubleshooting setup issues
  4. Changes to the development environment get applied consistently across the entire team, eliminating the gradual drift that happens when developers update tools independently
  5. The same environment runs on laptops and CI systems, ensuring code behaves identically from development through deployment and reducing environment-related bugs
