Ditching Docker for Local Development (lgug2z.com)

Some folks on the internet were interested in how I had managed to ditch Docker for local development. This is a slightly overdue write up on how I typically do things now with Nix, Overmind and Just.

Try to develop on a system that just has node16 3 different projects at the same time that each require different node versions. Nix rocks.

And now these need different GCC compilers. And building should be easy and reproducible.

If your app behaves differently based on the GCC version the same node version has been compiled, there's a fuck-up in there.

No, I mean my app has a node and an C part, just AS an example. Could also be Java vor PHP.

ahh, I see. I guess you had to do a bit more work to ensure everything builds with the same versions.
