I understand that there may be several benefits to using docker in development:
<ul>
<li>you will be able to emulate your production environment</li>
<li>time saving on onboardings for new collaborators or when a laptop breaks</li>
<li>a better understanding of the global system by all the team members</li>
<li>paying the integration price when it’s cheap, not when it’s expensive</li>
<li>good if you have to set up testing environments</li>
</ul>
But my question is: do you do it?
Does your team use Docker (or similar) in development?
Mainly because, depending on the project, it can also come with some challenges and constraints. So, if you deliberately don&#39;t, why is that? Have you ever concluded that for some cases (apart from overkill) you would avoid it in development?
