About:
Lando is a comprehensive local development environment and DevOps tool built on Docker. It simplifies the setup of complex application stacks by managing containers, services, and dependencies through simple configuration files. The tool aims to streamline development workflows by providing a unified interface for various project types and environments.

Key Features:

Declarative configuration via .lando.yml files
Support for multiple services like Apache, Nginx, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Redis
One-command setup for starting, stopping, and rebuilding environments
Extensible via recipes and plugins for frameworks like Drupal, WordPress, and Laravel
Built-in CLI tool for running commands and scripts inside containers

Use Cases:

Setting up consistent local development environments for web applications
Managing multi-service microservices architectures locally
Automating project setup and onboarding for development teams

Alternatives:

Docker Compose – Lando provides higher-level abstractions and pre-configured recipes, whereas Docker Compose requires more manual configuration.
DDEV – Similar goal, but Lando is more framework-agnostic and supports a wider variety of stack configurations beyond PHP-centric projects.
