Today, we’re exploring dev container features and lifecycle hooks, which package your entire development environment into containers. These containers, standardized by the Development Container Specification, are enhanced with tools, runtimes, or libraries (features) and have defined triggers for specific actions (lifecycle hooks). This setup ensures a consistent, reproducible environment across any supporting tool. We’ll demonstrate how to add a feature to a dev container, providing a practical example of these concepts in action.⚡️💻 Resources: Using Images, Dockerfiles, and Docker Compose guide: Dev Container Specification: Features Community Index: Image or Dockerfile specific properties: Docker Compose specific properties: 0:00 Intro 0:49 Dockerfile demo 2:47 Docker Compose demo 4:46 Docker Compose Dockerfile demo 5:45 Summary
