Coming just from my experience, not trying to advise or anything. I've tried some side projects. I've failed. Then I thought maybe something else. So now I have a hobby (mostly rave parties and drugs) and i my work I can express my programming creativeness. Is it better? No? Yes? Hoe the fuck should I know?

dan-pud8595yDocker makes stuff like this really easy.
Or something like AWS where it's a hosted service -
If you don't want to spend $$ on out-of-the-box solutions you can also back up your machine once you have it all set up. Keep the code itself in git with a remote (Github/bitbucket etc), and then if something goes wonky, revert to the backup and pull your new code back down.

@dan-pud this.
Docker is perfect for something like this. Figure out the configuration once or download someone else's, and you're good to go. -
I also would recommend using docker. One command and its up. But also one command and its down. It can be a curse, but that's why you read the manual first, right?

Aldar12005yWhat do you mean when you say "Fucked up my MySQL installation"?
I never managed to do that in such a way, that wouldn't be easily solvable after just a bit of googling (Note: Talking about Linux setup, no idea about platforms)

AGAIN!!
Whenever I really feel like programming in my free time (which became really rare), I fuck something up and spend half of the night fixing it. Once it’s fixed I’m done, don’t wanna do anything anymore..
I should just start programming and set up the infrastructure afterwards.. at least I would get to do some programming then..
