US Patent 10331418 State machine representation of a development environment deployment process

Systems and methods for graphically representing a deployment process of a development environment are described. A request to create a development environment is received from a user. The request is evaluated to identify a stored template appropriate for the requested development environment, and the identified stored template is parsed to identify a plurality of executable instructions. A graphical depiction of the executable instructions is generated for display on a display device coupled to a development environment deployment system. Upon receipt of an updated status of an executable instruction from a virtual machine host coupled to the development environment deployment system, the graphical depiction of the executable instructions is modified.
