Create development environments from scratch without a Git repository

You can now create development environments from scratch directly from the environment creation modal. This new option allows you to:

• Start with a clean slate using your organization’s default environment image
• Start an environment without requiring a git provider configured on a runner
• Begin development immediately without needing to clone an existing repository

To create a blank environment:

1. Click the “Create Environment” button
2. Select “Create Environment From Scratch”
3. Choose your preferred environment class
4. Click “Create” to start your new environment
