Comment on Ask HN: Do you use a dev container and why?parent

Comments

Thanks for the info. Using different containers for build and test vs the packaged app makes a lot of sense.

easier if you don't have to worry about compatibility with the target environment.

I develop on Windows and deploy onto Windows right now, and as we get everything onto .Net Core (and maybe eventually) Linux I'm thinking the same thing. If I can build/test/run my app and service on the same target OS it can only make life better.

Any good guides for this or am I overthinking it and anything on containers will work?
