Awesome guide Sietse! 👏👏

We've been doing some Xperience on OSX and ran into some issues that seem to have been resolved in 13.0.10.

Have considered running SQL Server in a container as well (with a mapped volume for the db files) to avoid the configuration steps with local SQL Server?

Thanks Sean!

Good to know that there were some Linux filesystem fixes in 13.0.10.

I've been thinking of running SQL server in the container, but I haven't tried it yet and I'm curious how things like Kentico CI would work when developing locally. Do you have any experience with that?

I actually don't have much experience with the Kentico CI tool. We are a small team and a shared db has always worked for us.

I have run SQL Server in a container but only for demo'ing it, not for an active project.

I think as long as your SQL container is exposed for access, the CI tool should work?

I suppose! Time for some experimentation in terms of development workflow and such. Thanks for the tip!
