Before we talk about Warpspaces, let’s review GitHub Codespaces. A Codespace is a fully configured development environment that runs in the cloud, accessible via a web browser or VS Code, and hosted by GitHub. Every Codespace comes with common tools such as git, Python, Node.js, and other programming languages pre-installed. Codespaces can also be customized with other packages.
Warpspaces are Codespaces that have been customized with useful tools for performing migrations, including:
GitHub’s CLI tools
GitHub’s migration tools
Warp’s CLI tools
With a Warpspace, you get a secure, controlled Codespace environment with all the tools you would need to manually run migration tools, perform a manual migration, or manage an edge case where Warp alone will not handle your migration.
To open a Warpspace for a Project:
Open the Project’s Migration HQ repository,
Click the Code button,
Select the Codespaces tab, and
Click the + button or, if it’s available, the Create codespace on main button.
The Warpspace will take a couple of minutes to initialize, since it has to import a large set of packages. Once initialized, you’ll be in GitHub’s Codespace environment with a complete set of command-line migration tools and utilities:
