Wow, that has not been my experience with containers.
- kkapelon 6y agoCan you elaborate? Even the basic ability to just spin a container with all your stuff and start developing is an important advance. (especially for cases like python2/3, java5/8 etc) Coupled with the remote containers feature of visual studio, working with containers is now a game changer.
- g051051 6y agoMaybe for very small projects. But the scale of things I work on doesn't lend itself to that sort of thing.
- ghshephard 6y agoA lot of this depends on your CI/CD environment. In ours, every single push to every branch on the remote repo ends up building a testing/building a full container environment that is ready for deployment in the cloud - with no differentiation between production/development in terms of completeness. It's fast enough, that some (obv not most) developers don't even set up their local docker environment, and just use the CI/CD deployments to test their work. With the advantage being that if it looks good - single deploy moves all of the production environment to it.
