devbox

What problem are you trying to solve?

According to the docs the global devbox.json should be in the home directory, my understanding from reading this is that it would be located in the root of the home dir, however I've eventually found out that it's actually within ~/.local/share/devbox/ which is XDG_DATA_HOME.

Since this is a config file and not a data file I would expect it to be in XDG_CONFIG_HOME and not in the data dir, this way users can commit the file to source control along with their dotfiles.

What solution would you like?

Change the location of the global devbox.json file to XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
