Awesome post. Do you think Docker is good for local development ? I'm definitely sold that for deployment it is awesome. For local dev, although it saves some environment settings hassles, everything we do now need to be through docker. so far I felt a bit overkill to use docker for local dev environment. appreciate your thoughts!
For local development, yeah, it's not ideal. But for stuff like keeping multiple background processes online, (like running an API on computer when it's on), is an ideal use-case for docker desktop because then you can have multiple stuff running in the background with the minimum memory usage and no hassle of setting it up to run automatically and stuff
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

If you use vscode, check out devcontainers. They changed my life. I never develop on my host OS and ALWAYS in a devcontainers now.
Yes, I checked it out too. They are really good
