Developers can spend a lot time setting up projects, especially when they work on multiple projects that may have conflicting requirements or dependencies. To help alleviate some of this overhead, using development containers allows a developer to create isolated development environments, specified via the use of a definition (json) file, which they can share with other developers. This sharing of the definition file ensures each developer on the project is using the same toolchain, which reduces the startup time for new developers and ensures everyone is developing the software in a consistent manner.
Although each development container has a core specification, developers are able to apply their own customizations without compromising the shared development container specification.
On Ubuntu platforms, this product now provides a full development containers demonstration capable of providing a full COBOL development environment, running in a container, accessible from Visual Studio Code.
