Do not want to mess your minimal, clean and fine tuned OS installation with a bunch of compilers, linters, debuggers, interpreters, minifiers, unminifiers, beautifiers, etc...? Visual Studio Code nailed it with DevContainers. But do not want to use VSCode neither? That's where devc comes in, it a simple CLI that wrap docker/docker-compose and run the (almost) same commands that VSCode runs behind the scenes.
