    Dev Containers not only allow you to define which extensions should be installed and which configuration settings shall be set, but they also have something they call "Dev Container Features".
  • Take your development environment anywhere and on any machine with Dev Containers.

    there are already built docker images for common development environment. You can either use one of them, or build one from Docker file. Using a pre-built dev container doesn't mean you are only limited to that image, because you can still add other tools, which they are called features to that image. For a list of the pre-built templates check here, and for the other features that you can add check this. You don't need a Docker file, unless you want to build your dev environment step by step.

  • Containerizing devops tools with docker compose
    2 projects | /r/devops | 30 Nov 2022
    This is actually very easy. I've implemented a number of tools like this publicly but the standard doesn't limit you to public stuff. I can't emphasize enough the amount of speed we gained when we implemented this standard. https://containers.dev/features
  • DevContainers for Azure and .NET
    12 projects | dev.to | 13 Oct 2022
    features: While you can add everything in Dockerfile for the build, there are already pre-configured features you can optionally add. You can find the complete list of the features at here. Some examples of those features are common utilities and tools like Azure CLI, GitHub CLI and Terraform, and languages like node.js, Java, .NET, Python, etc.
