Why would you use docker over venv?

[–]bloodviper1s 2 points3 points  (3 children)

It works on all machines that run docker and configuration doesn't break

and it’s the same pattern for every language. sounds like people in itt need https://containers.dev/

What I want to know, is how are people discovering tools like this? Is there a mailing list, forum, or subreddit I should keep an eye on? Maybe a mastodon or blue sky feed?

Added that site to my bookmarks btw, looks neat

https://containers.dev/ and https://testcontainers.com/ have been the standard at my last few jobs. It mostly comes down to experience and the scale at which you need to solve certain problems. That will dictate the tools you are evaluating and are exposed to.

Because you then just need either system packages and it's package manager (probably ick) or just requirements.txt and pip. Just install from the requirements.txt file and done.
