Ohh, @deng, my exact words and you are 100% right. Same experience, same conclusion: - I would go even further: Do not use bash/python or any duck-typed lang.

Ohh, @deng, my exact words and you are 100% right. Same experience, same conclusion: - I would go even further: Do not use bash/python or any duck-typed lang. (only for simple projects, but better just dont get started). - Leverage Nix (!! no its not a joke ecosystem) : devshells or/and build devcontainers out of it. - Treat tooling code, ci code, the exact same as your other code. - Maybe generate the pipeline for your YAML based CI system in code. - If you use a CI system, gitlab, circle etc, use one which does not do stupid things with your containers (like Github: 4 years! old f** up: https://github.com/actions/runner/issues/863#issuecomment-2591932159 https://github.com/actions/runner/issues/863#issuecomment-25...) Thats why we built our own build tool which does that, or at least helps us doing the above things: https://github.com/sdsc-ordes/quitsh https://github.com/sdsc-ordes/quitsh
