Containerized IDEs and Local-as-Code Techniques for Cloud Native Development

Explore containerized Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) and Local As Code techniques in this 33-minute CNCF conference talk. Delve into the fundamentals of coding projects, discussing essential prerequisites and identifying sources of truth for different layers. Learn about Nix as a versatile tool for various projects and examine two distinct solutions. Gain insights into the importance of personalization in development environments. Discover VS Code Remote Development and explore four approaches to containerized operating systems: offline (easy), hybrid (medium), online & scalable (hard), and online & managed (easy). Enhance your understanding of modern development practices and containerization strategies for more efficient and flexible coding workflows.

Intro
Let's talk about coding, in general • Defining my terms
Before you can start coding, you need... (on most projects)
