Most of the time, IDEs are interacting with containers by connecting to the services they host or using mount points shared with these containers. IDEs don’t really profit from the containerized environments except for the services. The Remote Development Container extension for VSCode allows the IDE to spawn containers based on the provided configuration and install its server mode in it. This allows the IDE to move its localhost inside the container. We get a localhost with a configuration we can completely control, build and destroy at will and even share with teammates on any system, even our CI if we want. We’ll run a live demo to illustrate how to install this extension and configure it on a basic project.
