My experience is if the tooling is set up right it’s not painful, it’s the fiddling around with volume mounts folder permissions and debug points and “what’s inside the container and what isn’t” etc that is always the big pain point
Very accurate - that was one of the steps that caused me to fiddle quite a bit. Had to add an entrypoint to chown the mounts and also some Buildkit cache volumes for all the package managers.
You can skip the uid/chown stuff if you work with userns mappings, but this was my work machine so I didn't want to globally touch the docker daemon.
