The worst thing about Jenkins is that it works
At a recent job, we had slightly different containers for local dev; our backend containers (for a Go app) had Air [1] installed for live reloading, plus Delve [2] running inside the container for VS Code's debugger to connect to. We also had a frontend container for local dev, which didn't get deployed as a container, just as static files.

Svelte frontend vs HTMX and hyperscript
Do you use anything for live reloading? This is one aspect I miss when using gomponents compared to go templates, where I had a setup using Browsersync, which immediately refreshed whenever html/css/js changed. Now, since all HTML is within Go code, I have to recompile my go program to see changes, which takes up to ~5sec (I use https://github.com/cosmtrek/air for this).

Ask HN: Can I see your scripts?
There's also modd[0] which allows for many file watch pattern -> command combos to easily be defined & run simultaneously from a modd.conf file.

We don’t use a staging environment
I use a somewhat similar approach for Pirsch [0]. It's build so that I can run it locally, basically as a fully fledged staging environment. Databases run in Docker, everything else is started using modd [1]. This has proven to be a good setup for quick iterations and testing. I can quickly run all tests on my laptop (Go and TypeScript) and even import data from production to see if the statistics are correct for real data. Of course, there are some things that need to be mocked, like automated backups, but so fare it turns out to work really well.
You can find more on our blog [2] if you would like to know more.

How do you live reload html pages in development?
This pair of tools do both front-end and back-end live reloading with a small amount of config: https://github.com/cortesi/modd https://github.com/cortesi/devd
What are some alternatives?
When comparing air and modd you can also consider the following projects:
reflex - Run a command when files change
delve - Delve is a debugger for the Go programming language.
entr - Run arbitrary commands when files change
gow - Missing watch mode for Go commands. Watch Go files and execute a command like "go run" or "go test"
golang-docker-cache - Improved docker Golang module dependency cache for faster builds.
reflex - 🕸️ Web apps in pure Python 🐍
gin - Live reload utility for Go web servers
skaffold - Easy and Repeatable Kubernetes Development
overmind - Process manager for Procfile-based applications and tmux
