Description

### What is your idea or feature suggestion?

As the last commit is more than a year old, I wanted to ask if the project is dead or inactive for now?
![Screenshot 2024-02-14 103358](https://github.com/cytopia/devilbox/assets/28711915/0841e454-a36c-42dc-8a92-dde79ee63fe3)

### Benefits

Please honestly do not take this question as an offense. I really appreciate your work. I also fully understand that maintaining such an open source project is time consuming and sometimes not very rewarding, especially in monetary terms. However, transparency about the future of this project would greatly improve the possibility of some fork taking over, or possibly help developers to look for alternatives.

### Where can we find information about this?

_No response_

### Are you willing to provide a PR to address this?

None

# Update 2024-05-03

Still nothing official, but i wanted to share my transition to [DDEV](https://github.com/ddev/ddev).

Laradock didn't work for me. For whatever reason, mariadb crashed.

DDEV on the other hand worked liked charm. Installation is sweet and streamlined. It is the most user friendly docker-style experience I have ever had. Project workflow is easy af.

```
ddev config
ddev start
ddev launch
```

It gives you an actual url, https is set-up quite nicely by default. PHP Version can be set per project. Popular add ons can be installed as needed per project (phpmyadmin). Active community, frequent updates. Recommend.
