+title: Devbox Env Variables
+---
+
+The following is a list of Environment variables used by Devbox to manage your environment. Some of these variables are set by Devbox, while others can be used to manage how Devbox sets up your shell.
+
+Note that this list only describes variables that are set by Devbox itself. [Devbox plugins](/guides/plugins) may set their own environment variables, which are documented in their respective pages and via `devbox info <package>`.
+
+## Environment Variables Set by Devbox Shell
+
+Below are some useful environment variables that Devbox sets up for you. These variables can be used in your scripts to access information or write scripts for your current project environment.
+
+| Variable | Description |
+|:--------|:-----------|
+|`DEVBOX_CONFIG_DIR`| The directory where Devbox stores user-editable config files for your project's packages. These files can be checked into source control |
+|`DEVBOX_PACKAGES_DIR`| The directory containing the binaries and files for the packages in your current project |
+| `DEVBOX_PROJECT_ROOT` | The root directory of your current project. This will match the directory location of the `devbox.json` file for your currently running shell |
+| `DEVBOX_PURE_SHELL` | Indicates whether you are running your current shell in pure mode. Pure mode clears your current environment variables before starting a devbox shell |
+| `DEVBOX_SHELL_ENABLED` | Whether or not Devbox is enabled in the current shell. This is automatically set to `1` when you start a shell, run a script, or start services |
+| `DEVBOX_WD` | Your current working directory. This can be used when writing scripts that you want to run in your current directory, instead of DEVBOX_PROJECT_ROOT |
+
+
+## Environment Variables for Managing Devbox
+
+Below are some environment variables that can be used to manage how Devbox sets up your shell. These variables can be set in your shell or in your `devbox.json` file.
+
+| Variable | Description | Value |
+|:--------|:-----------|:------------|
+|`DEVBOX_DEBUG` | Enable debug output for Devbox. If set to 1, this will print out additional information about what Devbox is doing. | 0 |
+|`DEVBOX_FEATURE_DETSYS_INSTALLER` | If enabled, Devbox will use the Determinate Systems installer to setup Nix on your system. _This variable must be set on your host_ | 0 |
+|`DEVBOX_NO_PROMPT` | Disables the default shell prompt modification for Devbox. Usually used if you want to configure your own prompt for indicating that you are in a devbox sell | 0 |
+|`DEVBOX_PC_PORT_NUM` | Sets the port number for process-compose when running Devbox services. If this variable is unset and a port is not provided via the CLI, Devbox will choose a random available port | `unset` |
+|`DEVBOX_USE_VERSION` | Setting this variable will force Devbox to use a different version than the current latest. For example: `DEVBOX_USE_VERSION=0.13.0` will install and use Devbox v0.13 for all Devbox commands. _This variable must be set on your host_ | `unset`|

+Packages may take a long time to install if they do not have a binary available in the public Nix Cache. If a prebuilt binary is not available, Nix will built the package from source.
 
 If prebuilt binaries are not available in the public cache, you may want to use the [Jetify Cache](./cloud/cache/index.md) or the [Jetify Prebuilt Cache](./cloud/cache/prebuilt_cache.md) to cache the binaries you build for future use. Using a package cache can reduce package install by up to 90% compared to building from source.

 ## How can I use custom Nix packages or overrides with Devbox?
