At some point, we’ve all had to (re)install our entire development environment after switching machines.
Whether by choice or simply during on-boarding at a new company, a new mission,...
We’ve also all spent far to many hours figuring out which tools to install just to submit a PR or MR to an open source project.
And in many other situations, we quickly find ourselves facing the nightmare of configuring tools and frameworks when all we really want to do is what we love: coding.
And let’s not even get started on version updates and inter-dependencies 😅...
Fortunately, there is a solution to all these problems: dev containers.
During this tools-in-action session, I invite you to explore them with me.
The only thing I allow myself to install on my machine: Docker!
Everything else will be handled through configuration so that tools, frameworks, version management, and dependencies become a non-event in your development workflow.
You’ll leave knowing how to use dev containers—and how to build your entire development stack as code.

OVHcloud
During more than 20 years in the sofwate development profession, I was able to confront myself with many different technologies. And it is this diversity that makes me continue to love our job so much.
For 4 years now, I have had the chance to evolve within OVHcloud as a developer advocate. This position allows me to discover new technologies or disciplines such as Artificial Intelligence or "native cloud" for example.
But my heart of old Java developer can not move too far from this technology which is the common thread of my many years as a developer. It is with humility that I share this experience but also the novelties of our ecosystem through my conferences and the TADx meetup co-created in Tours.
