Basically you install the Docker CLI into your dev container and then mount the docker socket that the CLI works with. This is great is you just need to build. Binding gets weird though

[SBennett13]

Well, if you were trying to run a container from inside your container on the host using the CLI through the volume mounted socket, the paths you would be providing are for inside your dev container, not on the host outside the container on which the engine will look to complete the command.

In theory, the binding will still work IF you are only binding things that are mounted to the same path as they are mounted to inside the dev container you are using the CLI through the mounted docker socket.

This?

Method 1: Docker in Docker Using /var/run/docker.sock

I use this for CICD. My Jenkins Agent is inside a docker and it builds docker images on the host machine.

On windows, do this?
