Alt-Tab for Your Brain: Pick Up Exactly Where You Left Off

Davide Montesin, CatchSolve

Tired of losing your flow every time you hop between projects? In our January session, we’ll explore a practical workflow that runs each project inside its own hibernated virtual machine – so you can freeze your entire dev environment (code, docs, services, terminals) and wake it up days or weeks later exactly where you left off.

With a mix of open-source magic (kvm, rclone, autossh, tiger vnc and friends), you’ll see how context switching can go from boring memory work to having fun while jumping between projects in seconds.

If you juggle multiple codebases, client projects or research tracks, this session will help you switch projects in seconds—without the context loss!
