Exactly this. I’m the DevOps lead at my current company and my life would be hell if I had to manage not only remote machines but also local dev machines and all the package versions, dependencies, etc, that can differ. Docker adds some overhead and some headaches, sure, but once we got our CI/CD pipeline running with Docker life got about ten times easier because we weren’t spending hours in a Slack channel trying to chase down a package that someone forgot to upgrade or compiled with the wrong modules.
