In the Everything-as-code video ( • Everything as code philosophical discussion ) I mentioned creating development environments as code as well. Here I show a way to do that using Docker and WSL2 in Windows 10.
GitHub repo for my POC of using Dockerfiles to create #WSL2 distros: https://github.com/alexchiri/project-... - very much WIP so no docs for now and the repo is heavily customised for my use, but I plan to change this soon!
I mentioned the VS Code extension that allows you to use Docker containers as development environments, this is the link to its docs: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/re...
Check out part 2 of this video ( • Simpler dev environments as code with #WSL... ), where I show an attempt to continuously integrate changes made to these Dockerfiles and semi-automatically update the development environments based on those Dockerfiles running on my computer.
