I don't have advice - but just to share my own confusion in this area - I'm working more and more with containers and microservices. In the old days I used Eclipse, makefiles, and mostly vi to do my work. I'm not really sure how to integrate this with things like container deployments (lots of copying and shell scripts?) and with Kubernetes where things are getting very dynamic (scaling up, down, upgrades). The tooling just doesn't seem to be there. Right now, I'm relying on the old standard of vi along with some bash scripts. I don't know if that makes sense, but these old tools seem to work with the least obfuscation.

That does make sense. The whole world of Docker and so forth is still pretty mysterious to me. I mean, I get how it works in principle, but I'd have to seriously update my skills to teach an advanced course. Though, if I get what you're saying, it's that fewer training wheels—IDEs, etc.—are better in the beginning. Which is good (hopefully?), since I typically force them to use a text editor for everything.
