A developer-specific rapid development environment includes an instance of an application stack that is personal to a software developer. The personal application stack instance is a complete or partial replica of a production application stack executing in a service provider network. The personal application stack includes one or more software containers executing on the developer's development host (e.g. the developer's laptop, desktop, or virtual machine). An application under development can be deployed to and executed in the personal application stack instance. An instance of a workflow, which is also personal to the developer, can be instantiated for automating the execution of steps of a development workflow using the personal application stack instance such as, for example, building and testing the application, provisioning resources for use by the application, deploying the application and changes to the application to the personal application stack instance, and performing tests on the application.
