Greetings!

I currently installed GhostBSD on a VM as the installation process was
simple and quick. I want to develop some ports for FreeBSD on my VM. Can I
do this from GhostBSD?

I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Yours,
Robert Clausecker

With Poudriere you can create vanilla FreeBSD jails and test ports
using them. So this will give a 100% compatible experience.

As others have said, probably. But what happens if something goes
wrong? You have one more variable to consider.

Installing FreeBSD on your VM should be easy enough. Why don't you
try it?

There are VM images for FreeBSD, you don't even need to install it, it's
what I use for all my ports development.
I choose a zfs based image, expanded the disk to to have some room for distfiles, ports tree and logs, installed poudriere, and started
working.
