I set this up for my last company where we had all sorts of “works on my machine issues” and a needlessly painful onboarding experience. Local development became streamlined with this tooling BUT pre-apple silicon macs couldn’t handle running Docker like this. Glacially slow. We had a python monorepo with a bunch of services within it.
I am curious whether nix is an alternative / improvement for this. Was going down the nix road at first but an infrastructure team member steered me toward devcontainers instead and I’ve been pretty happy since!
