Local Dev Environment

Processes, ports, and .env files — managed inside Navique without opening a terminal.

The small daily friction of developer machine management — killing a runaway process, freeing a port, updating an environment variable — adds up. Navique's Local Dev tools handle all of it in a clean interface without switching apps. Process Monitor, Port Scanner, and .env Editor live alongside your GitHub PRs and deployment health in the same window.

Technical Capabilities

01.

Process Monitor

A live list of running processes on the local machine with PID, process name, command line, and memory usage. Processes can be killed with a single click and a confirmation dialog. Auto-refresh keeps the list current. Particularly useful for identifying runaway dev servers, stuck test runners, or orphaned database processes.

02.

Port Scanner

A list of all active TCP/UDP ports and the services listening on them: port number, protocol, service name, and owning PID. Ports can be killed from the panel, freeing them for other processes. Essential when 'port already in use' errors need quick resolution.

03.

.env File Editor

A dedicated editor for .env files in common project locations. The editor parses key-value pairs and displays them in an editable grid. Secrets are masked by default with a reveal toggle. Changes are saved back to the file. Supports all standard .env file formats.
